SInce we moved to GA...

WOW!  I cant believe so many of you still read our blog.   THANK YOU!!   Your questions are all the same..."What have we been up to since we moved to GA?"  

Well... we have been BUSY.   In route to GA  we were once again able to connect with Gytis, Waytt and their families.  (All three of the boys are disabled  in different ways and were adopted from the same orphange in Lithuania).  I never cease to be amazed when I see these kids pick up right where they left off.   They help each other in their area of weakness.  Those of us who get to watch them together are blessed. 
   
We moved into our home right before Christmas.  Somehow we managed to clear one little corner to put a tree up.    We were able to shoot most of the Christmas pics at just the right angle as to avoid the chaos and clutter in the rest of the house.  

The most unique thing about our new community of Peachtree City, GA is that it is laced with paved trails.  Sam and I can roll out our back door take these trails anywhere in our little city.  I can't tell you what freedom this brings to a kid in a wheelchair. 

Our biggest news is .....that we have officially begun the process of another international adoption.  We have a specific 11 yo (or 12 yo??--there is a descrepancy in her paperwork) girl in mind but God has several things to work out (finances and timing with Chip's deployment schedule to name a couple).   We have spent the last two months working hard to get our house "inspection ready" and to complete the mountain of paperwork.  If God brings us to mind please pray for us as there are so many things to do and so many details (NOT my strength!) .....

Again we continue to be amazed and humbled that you follow our story--a story about how this little family of sinners is loved by an awesome God.....
