Congratulations!!! Wow, this must be such a relief! Not just waiting anymore but moving forward! Blessings on your WHOLE family! ~ Jamie Selin
I've been bouncing between your blog & Tesi's blog to keep up with your news and have been praying for your family...I'm so glad you'll be with your littlest ones soon!
wahoo! the trip will be in my prayers :)
Wahoo to the Landers 8! We are all so excited for you! And you will have all 6 children in your arms just in time for summer vacation!
Yay! We are so excited for you guys...this has been such a long wait! Can't wait to hear and see when you bring them home!
PRAISE JESUS! I haven't visited you in a while...I had the incredible end of the story (well, not the VERY end, but I could prelude) BEFORE I read some of the battle before "the call." I think that might be called cheating, but just know that I am so, so, SO happy for you guys. Can't wait to hear even more details.
So happy for you!!!
Jody. I'm wondering when you're going to Sierre Leone. I just finished an AMAZING book by a Rwandan Holocaust Survivor "Left to Tell" AMAZING. With all your free time (ha!) you may want to pick it up. Blessings,Danielle
