Our boys are coming HOME!

We just got the phone call last night that told us the exciting news that our Haitian boys finally received their passports! This is HUGE as it means they will be coming home with our friend in 3 weeks! 3 WEEKS!

Though we've been working through this process for 2 years now, the reality of their impending homecoming is increasingly hard to wrap our brains around. 4 boys. WHAT WERE WE THINKING?!?

To friends and family: thanks for praying, listening, crying, laughing and supporting this insane journey. We really couldn't have made it through with some of you!

Now a request. We still need a little help! We have prepared, but things have happened to cause some of that prep to go out the window - like rats eating a huge hole through the mattress we had bought and were storing for one of the boys. Point is, though we prepared, we still need a few things. If anyone has any of the following items laying around that they're not using, we would really appreciate the help! We need:

1. A twin mattress
2. A toddler car seat or booster seat
3. 2 wooden dining room chairs or folding chairs (we had a couple disasters with dining chairs recently and are now short for our new family of 6)

Additionally, if any of you feels compelled to donate, we still need to purchase the third row seat for our SUV so we can have a car that actually fits our whole family. There's this great company that makes 3rd row seats for SUVs and that's about the only alternative we have right now. So please, if you feel so led, hit that donate button on the right hand sidebar.

This has been an incredible journey and we love and appreciate everyone who has been there for us and helped us along the way. You guys ROCK!
