Mothers Day and Babies on the Way!




As we celebrated Mother's Day yesterday in Greece, both Mike and I realized what a blessing both of our mothers have been in our lives. We are grateful. Thank you and we love you.

Because we are talking about mothers, we thought this was a great time to announce new mothers-to-be in our own family.

Michael and Nisha are expecting their second child, a baby boy, Griffin, August 30th. Older brother Jackson will be 4 just in time to meet his new brother. He is excited that it's a boy!

Missy and Paul are expecting possibly two babies this year. One sixteen year old birthmom, Gwen, has chosen them to be the parents of the child she is carrying that is due September 6th and they are still waiting for the homecoming of their Guatemalan daughter, Amelia Faith, who turns 1 this Wednesday, sometime before the end of 2008.

Michele and Jeremy are also expecting their first baby November 15th. She has had a good first trimester and is feeling great!

All the Moms (and Dads) are doing well and we are overjoyed at all these gifts from the Lord. These new lives are especially precious to us as our family has been dealing with infertility for almost 5 years now. We have many grandchildren that we will meet for the first time in heaven and another that is still living with his birthmom. It is humbling to sit back and see the hand of God blessing our family. We are awed!!

Please join us in praying for the health and safety of all the moms and babies involved.
