Celebrating Isabella's Life!

Lord, we ask that you protect our baby girl. We ask that she will be with Godly care givers until we can get her. Please protect her and keep her safe! Thank you for giving her to us! Thank you for the life she has already had and the one she will begin with our family! May her life always be full of peace and love!

Isabella's Birthday


On June 11th, Isabella turned "ONE". It was a bittersweet day for us. We were so happy that we finally had a daughter, and at the same time so sad that we could not be with her to celebrate her big day. I decided to bake a cake and celebrate here with Frank. We celebrated her birth and thanked God for giving her life and for making her our daughter! We sang happy birthday and blew out the candles. Birthdays are a celebration of life and we decided to celebrate from a far. We put out Isabella's picture and celebrated as if she was here with us! We plan on giving her another birthday party sometime this summer to celebrate with family and friends.

Baby Showers........


I am running several weeks behind on posting. To catch everyone up, we had a baby shower at the Wynn Reunion and a baby shower at the Harter's on May 23rd. This was a busy weekend! Diane also had a baby shower in Valdosta on Saturday. Frank and I were given lots of great things for Isabella! We are truly blessed by our friends and family! Isabella is going to be well dressed! Diane is at the end of her pregnancy with Carson. We hope she arrives before we leave for China. Today, we should find out if we will be leaving on July 7th or July 14th. It is also my last day of work at SAS. I have a huge list of things that need to be done before I can begin to pack for China.
