GREAT, WONDERFUL, FANTASTIC NEWS

Precious is officially a LARSEN!!!!

Is that not the very best news ever?

Now I can book my plane tickets and go to Ghana. I will be leaving on Tuesday morning, arrive in Accra Wednesday morning, and file our I600 paper work Wednesday after noon. While that is being approved I will be working on getting her a visa.

My sister in law Cheryl is also going to go to Ghana with me. I so excited for her to meet her 3 girls. My brother Brant and Cheryl are going to adopt Precious's 3 older sisters. She will be able to hand deliver her dossier (all the paper work required to adopt) to Kingsley. I'm so glad she will be there with me. I was a little nervous being there by myself. We hope to do some sight seeing with the girls, and hopefully we can meet with their birth mother.

Great things are happening, I am so blessed!!

This picture is of Precious and her sisters.

Sandra, Dorthy, Paulina, and Precious. Aren't they all so beautiful.

This is just the BEST news! OH I AM SO HAPPY FOR ALL OF YOU!!!!! I am just so amazed at how God works...God is good...He is SO GOOD!! To think Cheryl and Brant are adopting the three older sisters so the four sisters can all stay "family" and continue knowing where each other is and being able to spend time together...I just want to scream I am so happy and excited...But I won't because Taiger is resting! ;) Good luck getting ready to leave for Ghana!
