God has been gracious to us and has been with us through our journey of love and life. He has carried us through some of the most difficult times and has given us joy in the midst of sorrow. He has also been loving and given us abundant blessings. Most importantly, He has provided us with faith. May we share that faith with others.

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

Today was Visa day.  Dave, Tiffany and Luke went to the US Embassy while Grandma took Liam and Lilly exploring the old village, which was located next to the palace.





Lilly was all about the food at the hotel!  Best breakfast ever!

South Korea - Custody Trip, October 14th

Luke’s Gotcha Day!

Today was the day we have been waiting for.  We went to the Holt office and met with Luke’s Foster Parents and our Social Worker.  Liam and Lilly were so excited to meet Luke!  Luke’s Foster Mother was happy to meet the kids, especially Lilly.  Lilly made her a cute card.  Luke had one last physical exam.  The director of Holt prayed over Luke and then we said our goodbyes to Luke’s Foster Parents.  Although they have fostered 35 children, they still got emotional saying goodbye to Luke.  We loaded up in the taxi and went back to the hotel.  Luke was great and did not cry at all.  After his nap we went to the Harry Potter CafĂ©, which was something Liam really wanted to do!
