Yesterday I asked Paul to please fill out his information on the application to Better Future Adoption Services. He reviewed the application, we discussed what to write for why we wanted to adopt and why from Ethiopia. It was a wonderful TEAM effort! So then I proceeded to finish addressing newsletters (hey! It's only Christmas eve eve!) and then he said, "Merry Christmas!" He signed the application with 12/25/07 on it. Best gift I've ever received! Just imagine next Christmas we will be having twin baby girls here celebrating with us! God is so good!
Have a blessed Christmas and a wonderful new year!

Lookin' like Christmas!
Let it snow! Let it snow! Boy is it beautiful here in Freeland, MI. The children have been enjoying building snow forts, ramps and snow men. I have been busy doing Christmas shopping--all done except stockings, yeah!
Thanksgiving was super nice. We had Paul's parents, my parents and Uncle Earl here and Zac was home for college. The food was delicious and the fellowship was sweet. Zac has matured so much since he left in August, thanks to our prayers and ROTC. It is a pleasure to have him home. The kids love playing board games with him and he seems to enjoy the "celebrity status".
On the adoption front, we have officially pulled out of Acres of Hope, have sent a letter asking for our amount of the adoption fund back and after the check comes back, we will officially decide our next move. I know what I desire, but Paul will be the one making the decision after much "watching and praying".
Hope you all are enjoying your families and friends during this Christmas season!
