How much our life has changed.

We had a perfect day on the farm. On the way home from church, tonight, LJ was singing softly in the back, "Jesus loves LJ...Jesus loves LJ...hmmm...hmmm...hmmm...Jesus loves LJ..."

My eyes filled. I looked at Ben and whispered, "THIS is why we do this."

Jesus loves LJ...Jesus loves LJ... And now he knows.

    I stubbled upon your blog awhile ago. I'm always so inspired by your adoption. Never did I know that Michigan had a "waiting list". God is wonderful and so are you!!

    I have been mostly silently stalking your story since before Ty came along. Your family has blessed my heart numerous times. I am so pleased about LJ coming to join you! God is so faithful. We are headed to Cleveland from New Mexico on Tuesday to meet our new addition! Never been to Ohio before...it will be an adventure for sure. Thanks for sharing your heart!

    I cannot wait to see how the love of God changes this little boy's life. I'm so glad that God is using you guys to this end, and for His purpose.

    Jesus loves LJ...and so does Mommy and Daddy and Brother! Soon he "feel" those words as well as say them :-) I love seeing that he is already smiling in some of the pictures. My son too went through a lot of placement before I brought him home...but he figured out my home was different pretty quickly. There is something inside of LJ where he knows that the hugs feel different, the smiles are different, the *feel* is just different this time around. Hugs to all of you!
