A Rare Photo

I wanted to share this picture of Jeff-Taline.  I came across it on the GVCM website and it is precious to me because it is probably the only picture we will ever have of her as a baby.  I'm guessing she is about 18 months here.  Adoptive parents rarely get to see their child in the different stages of life prior to adoption.  I think she is so stinkin' cute! Look at that big belly!

Restaveks (child slaves) in Haiti

Please read the entire article. This is a very sad reality in Haiti.  Remember, this is a country that is only a two hour flight from Miami. Pray for Haiti

Yikes!!

Just a quick update to let you know that Michael has finally been able to get a flight into Port au Prince for January 2.  We are excited that he will begin to build our house there, but pray for his safety.  Although the riots have calmed down, Haiti can still be dangerous for foreigners.
