HUGE News

Many of you know that my sister and her family have been going through the long and heart wrenching process of adopting 2 little boys (they are brothers) from Ghana Africa. What some of you do not know, is that my sister is in Ghana this very minute!! She has met her 2 newest son's as well as introduced them to her eldest son, Mark who is 7, along with her for this special trip. When they are down to the last week in Africa, my sister's husband will fly out and then all 5 of them will fly home together!

So, over the next few weeks my sister is going to the Orphanage as much as possible and getting to know the boys in thier own environment where they feel safe and secure. Gradually and with out too much stress they will get to know each other.

Names and ages you ask?? Luke is 5 and little Nathan is 4. Very exciting stuff! You can keep up with their adventure by going HERE.
