Our Growing Family: Adopting from Haiti

Adoption...it is an exciting and yet somewhat frightening path to follow. I've decided to create a blog to describe this journey for several reasons: to document our adoption process, to help others who may have some of the same questions and concerns that we have or once had, and to share our experiences with our friends and family.

Each day is a blessing

Each day when I look at Judson I cannot believe all God has done. This little boy, his health, his simply being here in the U.S., is such a testimony to how awesome and faithful God is. There are no limits to the His power, and the way He takes care of those who serve Him. It amazes me to think that Judson shouldn’t be home for at least another year, and yet here he is.


I watch Judson when he sleeps; I listen to his laughter when he’s playing with Jerry, Rozii and Joey; I smile when he walks toward me his little legs shaking as he continues to work toward better balance (yes, he walks everywhere now), and I feel so blessed. If you are working on an adoption, don’t get discouraged by timelines, people, world events, etc. Look at God and nothing else because with prayer anything is possible. Each day I know it’s true.
