These are the before during and after pictures of our day at the pool. Our backyard pool. It was Claire's second or third try at the pool but I don't think she remembers the others...so we were starting from scratch. She watched big sister get in and get wet. We then couldn't keep her from the pool. We now feel prepared for vacation...she can love the pool too.
Every call has a beginning. A quiet moment when God whispers a promise to a mother’s heart . A holy place where a father bows and faithfully accepts the journey set before him. A miraculous morning that unexpectedly dawns… Casting its first light on a chosen threshold. A gentle knock..a closed door opens, a sacred invitation sent by the Father.. leads to the other side of the world. Where lonely hearts stare out orphanage windows praying for someone to care.. and then one morning, on an ordinary day an orphan’s life changes... God sends them a second chance...Through you..

Favorite Poem
We are a family now, a whole,of which you are a part,and you are just as much our child as any in our heart. We do not love you differently,nor would we give up less of all that life has given us to bring you happiness.There is no limit to our love,no boundary you might cross,no price you may be asked to pay,no need to fear its loss. We are now one, the five of us,windows of one home. As long as we have life and breath,You’ll never be alone.~Nicholas Gordon

Oh, this cracked me up!! Claire, you are so funny. (And so cute...) You will have to come over and play soon. We have some new friends who just moved to here, and there is a 2 yr old in that family from China, too! So we will have a whole "gang"!
