As Jon Paul gets stronger and healthier, he looks better and better. He looks like a different kid than he did when he arrived here, just 3 months ago.
Good morning, Faye! It has been such a long time since I checked in with you! I see that you are all doing well as a family of 4, well plus a canine, of course! What a scare you must have had with the eye cancer - I will pray that all continues to go well with him. Just wanted to let you know that we are in process of adopting another daughter from China - she is 6 and has ROP! We will soon have 3 daughters, all born in the same year - gracious sakes alive! Blessings to you and yours, Donna
Psalm 139:15-16 "My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be."
You can not change the world by adopting one child; but for that one child, you can change the world.
"We are obliged to yield many things to the Catholics...
that they possess the Word of God, which we received from them;
Otherwise, we should have known nothing at all about it."
~Martin Luther

Proverbs 16:9 - In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps.
It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish. ~ Mother Teresa
