Hello Everyone, I apologize for not updating sooner. I have been scolded for not updating so here is a brief. We had a good trip and we made it home safe. We are all adjusting very well to our new life. Jade is very sweet and a joy to be with. The doctor gave her a clean bill of health. God is good!
I will not be updating the blog often as I am spending most of my time with Jade and our grandsons. Thank you all for following our journey and praying with and for us.
An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet regardless of time, place or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle, but it will never break. ~ Chinese proverb
