To all of you who have been basking in the sunlight it might not seem like a big deal but to us in the cold, overcast ...the sun is wonderful!After just a few short days here the weather turned really cold and produced a fine drizzle of rain. On some of the days I have worn three layers of shirts ,a coat, scarf and gloves! I am a true coastal dwelling Texan and I have realized that I flourish in the heat and sunlight! The weather is promised to continue to be good this weekend which is good because we pick up Ms. Priss on Saturday. We visited her yesterday at the hospital and she is so much better! In fact they removed her IV just before we got there. She is being transferred today(Thursday) back to the orphanage, so we will pick her up from there on Saturday. It is amazing to us how different she is after each visit. She now puts her hands out for you to pick her up.She mimics everything you do. Bret would make faces at her and she imitated them perfectly! She also said "mama" yesterday! Now, that really makes your heart smile! It is so wonderful to see what a forgiving little heart this child of ours possesses.
Today, we move into our own apartment. It is located in the same building but different floor.We figured two kiddos in the same apartment could be somewhat chaotic! We have had a great time with our roommates,the Kellams.They have helped pass the time here.We all have approached it with a great deal of laughter. I think humor is a must in a situation like this! So, we are now in the final stretch! I can actually see the "light" at the end of the tunnel.
We are ready to get this little monkey home and see our boy's!!!!!!!So, that is all for now! Check back on Saturday !

Nicole,
I know you are sooo happy. Praise the Lord for her renewed health. Thank you for your sweet comments... always.
No matter what... even if we don't talk frequently... we're hens to the end.

Tomorrow you run around after paper work.. that will keep you nice and busy.. then! You get her!!! Sounds like the snow suuit might come in handy!
You're running for the roses at this point girl... home stretch! :)
Congratulations to Miss Ava, she doesn't know what's about to hit her with two big brothers to "kiss her face off" as my MIL says! :)
I'm so glad to hear Ava is feeling better! You are in the home stretch for sure! Just run around and do paper work and then hop on that plane and get home to your boys! :-)
