Well you haven't heard anything from me for quite some time. How could I neglect writing for over four months!? Well simply because these two precious munchkins have kept me busier than ever! But as I say "hello" again and assure you all that the past months have been full of joy, Hardships and learned lessons...I must also tell you that our time as "mommy and daddy" to Big Brother and little Sister is ending. They will be fully reunited with their birth mom on Aug 15th. Wow! The past 6months have FLOWN BY! This little baby girl was 6 weeks when we first welcomed her into our heart and home. Her big brother was 5yrs old. "Little sister" is now a "big girl" rolling over, babbling, wiggling all around and showing real personality - she'll be 8 months old next week! Big Brother is bigger than ever and maturing before our eyes! He's 6 yrs old and will talk your ear off. He loves Bible Study each morning and singing hymns- Holy, Holy, Holy, Amazing Grace, and Sound the Battle Cry are his favorites. He knows 11 verses by heart and loves reciting them to family, friends, and perfect strangers in the HEB parking lot! Little Sisters too young to understand the upcoming events of reunification (birth mom hasn't had her since she was a week old)...but Big Brother is thrilled about going to live with his mom! He's telling everyone the good news and is getting so anxious he often says he's going back home "in the morning". Not quite...but time has always been hard to grasp.
I will have more time to update everyone later and hope to include more details and pictures. For now, things are still too busy to sit down and give it my full attention. After the kids go home Josh is anticipating/planning a two week hospitalization (before we get more placements). Its been a year and a half since he was last in, and it's a good time for a "re-boot ". :-) I'll take time then to fill you in. Once we're out of the hospital (beginning of Sept) our doors will be open again for more of God's precious blessings!!! We LOVE fostering!!!!!!
