Hello dear friends

After a very long journey, I am home and so thankful to be with my family. I am absolutely exhausted from dealing with so many emotions from the last few weeks and jet lag.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for your outpouring of love and support.  Oh my goodness gracious, I was completely blown away when I got to my blog and saw your sweet comments.  Please know that I am so thankful for your amazing encouragement.  It truly does mean the world to me. You guys rock!

I have so much to share.  Tomorrow, I promise. The last few days have been a whirlwind. 

May the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords envelope you in His love.

Walking in His amazing grace.

So glad to hear you are safely home. Will continue praying for those precious girls. May the time pass quickly and then you can go and get them and bring them home to a family who will give them all the love they have never had. Can't wait to see them in your arms again.

Welcome Home, Adeye! I know it is bittersweet, but enjoy this time of refreshing and take rest in the comfort and grace of our Heavenly Father. His angels have been made charge over your babies while you are away, and He is holding them in His arms, so they will be okay.

Blessings and Hugs,

Mama D.'s Dozen said...

Bless you sweet friend! Still praying!

Be BLESSED by the sweet hugs of your children.

Let your husband wrap you in his arms and hold you close. Let the tears flow ...

Let your Heavenly Father minister to your heart and soul (that has carried such a great burden these past couple of weeks).

Know that Jesus is holding your little girls tightly in His arms, while you are away.

Take time ...

... to be with family

... to be alone with Anthony

... to be alone with Jesus


Don't worry about your Bloggy Friends. We will be here waiting when you are ready to share. We'll still be praying, even if we don't hear from you every day.

Big Hugs,

Laurel :)

Hi my friend. I know that you never planned to come home without your little girls, but I pray that your heart will be refreshed and revived over the next few weeks before you travel back to bring them home for good. Just being around your precious family will be such a healing balm to all your heart has processed. Love you and am so glad that you are home safe and sound. Feast away on all your favorite veggie meals :) You certainly deserve that! Our loving Father is hovering over those dear little that will soon be home too. Love Jan

Get over the jet lag - be with the family - and share when you have time....we're a way lower priority!

And we still feel your pain having to leave your kids for a few weeks -

Oh, Adeye....I'm so glad you're home with your family! I know it was so hard to leave without your babies. I was worried when we didn't hear from you for two days, because I had no idea you were already on your way home. Seriously, I'm checking my blogger every couple of hours looking for an update from you. I'm so anxious to hear all that's on your heart from this experience. Please post as soon as you can! We love you!

Oh my friend - what a trying time you have had!! It must have been so difficult to leave your daughters but I know that there is a plan for all of you and that you had to go home for so many reasons. It must be so special to be with your family! I have been following your journey daily and have left you messages but dont think you've go them! I really dispair!!!
