Our Journey To Charlie & Levi...

After 17yrs of marriage and "8" amazing children, God has continued to keep the fire for adoption burning in our hearts. Crazy?... Maybe?!?! But....Doesn't God call all of us to do CRAZY things for him? Isn't that what it means to Live for Christ? To make a difference ONE orphan at a time. So after months of praying that this little guy would find a forever family, he FINALLY has!! OUR FAMILY!! Join us as we pray, cry, fill out mounds of paperwork & fundraise to bring our son home. We give God all the glory for choosing to adopt us & for giving us the opportunity to Choose Charlie...And because we could not get Zhora(Levi) off our minds and God obviously placed him in our hearts... We're bringing him home too!!

Brother's....Day 7 & 8

This morning's time with the boys was great!! We spent time with Charlie alone and he was much more gentle & listened to us. We were a little worried about how he might act when we went to get Levi, because we had only seen them seperately. So we took him with us to get Levi and to our surprise he really didn't seem to care one bit:) Levi on the other hand felt like this about sharing us with Charlie....As he threw himself down & pouted. lol

He did come around after a while & decided it was'nt so bad:)

This is the ONE lone swing & they LOVE it!!

HAPPY 6th BIRTHDAY CHARLIE!!!!!

Today is the day that Charlie would have been transferred to the institution, where he would have had little hope. On monday the director said to us as he went through his file, that he only had two more days. It breaks my heart to see how many other's will never have a family and instead spend the rest of their short lives in an institution:(

We Love you Charlie!!!

Levi is SO Ticklish!! And about every 5 minutes he holds his arms up & says Mama:)

    Those pics are amazing!! Thank God for the perfect timing for dear sweet Charlie...and for Levi.The boys will never know the inside of an institution and will now know the love of a family. One question, do the boys know each other or are orphanges so large they don't see each other? How large are the groups they live in?
