Quick Update

Well, the "Last night in Gorlovka", was not the last night in Gorlovka. But bottom line, we are home safe and sound as of late Thursday night. Probably one of the most stressful weeks we have ever encountered. The kids are wonderful and are adjusting well and their two new big brothers have been absolutely awesome with them. In fact, their first big outing was today as we took them to Justin's football game. I added some new pictures and we will write about this past week soon.

  • I'm thrilled for you guys. I'll wait until later in the week to call. I'm sure you're exhausted. Oh who am I kidding, I'll probably call tomorrow.

  • Jeff and Jennie,
    So glad to hear you made it home at last. The kids look like they stood the trip well. They are so cute! You are going to have so much fun over the next few months (heck, what am I saying: the rest of your lives!) I wish I could be a fly on the wall to watch your little ones' transition. It is truly amazing to watch! Good luck with all of that and God Bless.

  • Dear Jeff and Jennie,
    It is so awesome to see pictures of all of you at home. What an adventure. I will call next week. I have to talk to you and hear all about when the kids were together for the first time. Did they remember each other and how long had it been since they were together? It is so amazing that they can be together and be a part of such a special family. The Lord has truly blessed all of you!
    Love, Beth

    We're so glad you're all home together. Now the fun begins!!! I hope you're all adjusting to everything and aren't too jet-lagged. I will definitely call you soon, after you have some time to settle in.

  • David Paul came home yesterday and said "Mom....Edward let me pick him up!" and he smiled so sweetly. He was so excited to give him some of his toys...thanks for sharing those first precious days home with your neighbors....Jenna and Edward are so so cute! and Justin and Jacob are such proud big brothers. Jennie, please, call on me anytime you need anything!
    Love,
