LAST POST FROM CHINA!
This is it! Our last post from China! Time has really flown by,
but we are so ready to come home and see our little babies! We
have missed everyone terribly. The comments that you all have
left is what has gotten us through this last week. We are very
thankful for every word & prayer!
Today we spent some time with friends at breakfast and lunch.
After lunch all the families went to the U.S. consulate to take
our oaths. There were 57 families there today. The room was full
of emotions! All the waiting, all the paperwork, everything came
to a close that moment in the room filled with crying babies and
happy mom’s and dad’s! :0) Now, only one thing left to do…get
our babies home! Matt & I are truly blessed by God! We PRAISE
HIM for all that He has done in our lives! We can’t wait to see
yall when we get home! We will leave you with one verse that God
placed on our hearts at the beginning of the adoption. It is an
eye opener…. one we will always remember, because God has shown
us He will not abandon His works!!
…..The Lord will
fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O Lord, endures forever,
do not abandon the works of your hands. ~Psalm 138:8

Devotional Questions:
Moses followed God all the days of his life. He always was
thankful and obedient to God. That is what Mommy and Daddy are
doing by getting Faith and bringing her home. God told us to.
David is another hero in the Bible that gave thanks to God. He
thanked God after defeating Goliath, and he thanked God after
each victory. In Psalm 118, it says “Give thanks to the Lord,
for he is good: his love endures forever.” We see that both of
these hero’s in the Bible thanked God. We need to do the same
and give God thanks in all circumstances and for everything! WE
LOVE YOU BOTH AND ARE SO PROUD OF YOU!!! WE CAN’T WAIT TO SEE
YOU!!!!!
