What a Difference 3 years make!!!!

3 short years ago, Mark and Itraveled to China to pick up our daughter. Abby couldn't walk, sit up by herself, talk or crawl. She was 15 lbs at 19 months old. Well, now she is 4 1/2 almost 35 lbs.; doesn't stop talking; loves to sing, dance, swim and is just our joy. She is now in Pre-K at St. John Primary in Prairieville.



Jonathan is a Freshman at the Boston Conservatory. We are so proud of him. He placed in advanced classes in his craft and has a lead role in his first college play.

Brandon is now an Attorney at Law, living in Colorado and loving it. His girlfiend, Annie, is just as sweet as she can be.

Mark and I are so blessed. You know it is real easy for us to get caught up in the "things" in this life that we don't have. I am so thankful for our blessings.

We promise to do better on posting pictures.

Cincinnati, Boston, and Easter

We have been very busy the past month or so. Jonathan was accepted to the Boston Conservatory and received a scholership. We are so proud of him.

Mark and Brandon joined him on a trip to visit the school and see Boston. Jonathan is very excited and will be attending in the fall.

Abby was a little angel for Easter. Mom found the perfect dress and she enjoyed so much wearing it. She was the egg boxing champion this year in our annual competition. She loves hunting eggs but especially dressing up for Easter. Spring is such a wonderful time of year.

Abby, Mom and Dad made a trip to Cincinnati childrens hospital for a check up. Doc Doc said she is doing great and should have no long term issues. That was wonderful news for us all. While there she met a new friend. Maya was also adopted from China and was born with the same condition as Abby. They live in Florida we plan to stay in touch. They had such fun playing and became good friends.

Mark has to travel for work to Scotland and is going to try and go see St. Andrews. That is something he has always wanted to do. Debbie has to go to Alaska for work in June. Keep us in your prayers for safe travel!

Brandon is still waiting on word about his Bar exam. Please keep in your thoughts and prayers as he anxiously awaits GOOD NEWS!!!!!

I promise to do better about updating our website. I know I say that everytime .... but....

Abby's Birthday was Wednesday and her party is today. It is hard to believe that she is 4 years old. She is such a precious little angel. This is a picture of her Cinderella Cake. A princess cake for our princess. We will post more pics after the party. God Bless.
