Verse for the Day

"See now that I, I am He,
And there is no god besides Me;
It is I who put to death and give life.
I have wounded and it is I who heal,
And there is no one who can deliver from My hand."
Deuteronomy 32:39

One Year Today!!

Today marks one year ago we decided to adopt our precious son, Benjamin.
God's Hand moved mightily in our hearts and financially.
We are grateful the Lord has chosen us to be his Mama and Babba (daddy).



Deuteronomy 33:12
Of Benjamin he said,
"May the beloved of the Lord
dwell in security by Him,
Who shields him all the day,
And he dwells between His shoulders."

Finger Painting Fun

This was Benjamin's first fingerpainting experience.
Lily and Benjamin are quite good artists.

Benjamin

This must be the most awaited post ever!
Benjamin is amazing! His adjustment has been more than we could ever have asked for. The Lord is good! Someone said to Paul and I that Benjamin looks like he has always been here (in our home). His speaking English is OK, but he understands almost everything we say to him. He eats good, a meat man, not a veggie man for sure. Sweets are right up his alley and he loves fruit. Benjamin is sleeping good, through the night from day one. One of his favorite things is the "parka" (translation park)(he likes to add an "a" on the end of most words). He also loves to go outside to ride his bike, play in the sand, swing and "jumpa" (jump on the trampoline). Benjamin loves books, especially if it delays the inevitable bedtime! So what does Benjamin not like...well, broccoli, carrots, salad (and we are a salad family) and bedtime! We are very blessed, Benjamin is very laid back and easy going, obedient and loves to please, he is a great helper and is concerned about others.
Thank you Jesus!
