Choosing Charlie and Levi!!

I hope the Harper's don't mind me sharing this....

I just wanted to post about another RR family that I had the honor to meet while we were overseas. In a country whose culture is so very different and foreign to our own, but yet is the birth country of my daughters. Because of that, there is a certain amount of respect and love I have for this country! Anyway, I digress....

This family is adopting 2 sweet, loving, smart, active little boys, who both happen to have Down syndrome. They are the cutest little guys and I am excited that I had the privilege to meet them! Their mom has been away from home for so long, and she has had to deal with more delays and things than she should have had to, but she has stuck it out and with a great attitude I might add!! I have seen her sing songs to them, swing them around, carry them, hug them, kiss them, teach them things, and love them with her whole heart! What a blessing for their whole family!! And especially for those 2 boys! She is gonna do an amazing job with them!!

And now after much waiting, they have finally received the passports/etc. that they need to be able to bring those boys home and I am just so excited for them!! Praise God!!




Working hard entertaining these little guys!!





Charlie



Levi

Please pray for them as they prepare to fly home on Saturday! Pray for safe and smooth and easy flights and that the boys would do wonderfully on their flight home!

What a wonderful reason to celebrate and rejoice in the adoption of 2 little boys that are orphans no more!!!!!

And please check out their blog to read more about this family and their story!

Okay for a split second when I saw the title of this post...I thought you were getting your own Charlie and Levi...and my heart skiped a beat (with excitment)...Then I quickly read on and saw it was the Harper's Charlie and Levi :) They are adorable. What a sweet blog to follow too. I will be praying for their safe return to the states.

Psalm 139:13-16

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
