HOME!






We are home! I don't have much time to go into many details right now-- I have to take both Big & Little S for a routine appointment with the pediatrician this morning.

All is well, considering we were travelling for 36 hours. The flight was brutal, but we kind of expected that. Fortunately, we were all able to stay up to regular bedtime last night and the kids woke up around 5:45 this morning! Not sure if we'll be that lucky tomorrow!

The kids are beautiful.....and wonderful...and we are so in love with them! The transition with PIckles is going as good as can be expected.....what can I say for a 2 year old that hasn't seen her mommy, daddy or big brother in 10 days! We have some rough days ahead of us for sure!

Welcome Home! Can't wait to hear about your trip (when things settle down a bit, of course).

Praying for a smooth transition for everyone.

After catching up on your blog, I realized I have pictures of your kids from when we visited in Ethiopia. I would be happy to send them your way.

Send me an email at adoptioncubed@gmail.com and I will send them your way!

How very exciting to see these pictures of your very, very happy children! Pickles and Little S look like sisters! Big brother looks so proud and Big S looks ecstatic to be with you all! God bless every part of your transitions.
