Praise God, Our Paperwork Was Submitted to the SDA!




Praise God! Our paperwork was submitted today to the SDA for a court date. We should hear something on Monday when we will have a court date. Sasha said it could be on Friday but he will try to get it expedited. Whew, one step closer.

Today has been a muggy cold day. James does not feel well and I woke up with a bad headache so we took the morning to rest. We went to see the boys this afternoon. Since it was so cold we did not go outside. We stayed inside and watched Max Lucado's Buzby. Luke is very interested in videos but Micah goes stir crazy when he has to stay inside. Needless to say he kept getting into trouble.

We took them some seedless grapes today and they ate all of them. We are so happy our boys love fruit. I think we will need to plant some fruit trees since they love it so much.

Rick and Melissa came to visit their kids while we were there. Everything seems to be moving right along and they went today to get everything notarized. Please continue to pray for them.

Tomorrow the weather may be even cooler than today and possible rain so pray that we have a good day inside with the boys and that Micah will behave himself.

Uncle Mark- If you are reading this please stay safe from the hurricane.

Pam- I got the pictures of Jake. I cannot believe how he has grown. Give him a 5 month old kiss from his Aunt Penny. We love you guys!

Pastor- please have special prayer for us Sunday. Please pray for our court date and our strength. We are very homesick but we are so thankful for where God has brought us. We love and miss you and Kathy.

Love to all our friends and family,

Penny, James, Luke and Micah

Hi guys,
Tracy and I are so excited for you and your new family. Isn't it amazing how God works ! His placing new Godly friends in your path to give you comfort and y'all doing the same for them is just another example of how good He is. We miss you guys so much as does everybody else at F.W.C. We continue to pray for y'all and will also add Rick and Melissa to the prayer circle we have going with our friends and co-workers. Love the pix and the updates. God be with you and hope to see you soon.

God is definitely our healer!! Our prayers are that James gets better today!!! these few weeks cannot pass quick enough for us and I know it's the same for you. I know you are enjoying the time with the boys - but it will be so much better when you can get them home - to their new home and their new life. A peaceful life - one full of blessing and blessing and blessing. :O)

Pastor is typing up his sermon and ever now and then I hear him saying stuff like "AWW - how did you do that?" and "Wait, where did it go - just where did it go?" and "I lost it!! Oh, no I lost it"
HEE HEE - He is so funny with computers. They are not his friend. HEE HEE.
:O)
MY prayer tonight for you is peace and safety and a quiet rest for you both and health over you. And for God to totally surprize you today - with a bubbly laughter time. yeah.
:O)

Hey there,
Eli and Jagz are doing just fine, Betty has been on duty fri. and sat., I'll go visit with them in the morning. I think they both have adjusted well. They are so precious, I enjoy spending time with them. Hope you have a wonderful weekend and that you get to come home sooner than you expect. God Bless!

We are so excited for all of you. It is so encouraging that your time to come home is closer and closer. God is so amazing to send you some people to love on and to love on you while all of you are going through this time. Your boys are wonderful and we are so happy that the paperwork is signed. Take care and be encouraged that you have so many people here praying for all of you. As amazing as your time with the boys have been there, when you get home it is going to be so awesome for all of you. Each day brings you closer.
