We started the day by being given a local (pay as you go) cell phone to borrow which was a huge blessing to be able to call the lawyer and also Elizabeth. We made arrangements to pick up the boys and also to have the lawyer stop by for our first meeting. We gave the boys stickers today as you can see. They were more than a little excited about those. Also toy cars sent along by gramma Brimer. It took about 2 seconds for them to start saying "vroom-vroom" and driving the cars everywhere. We took John (in blue and white strips) to the dr's today and got penicillin and creme for his skin. He has an infected spot on his arm which is not looking too good. He hated taking his medicine today so you can pray that it gets easier. At one point John just fell asleep in my arms and took a nap. We are going to Kampala tomorrow for some adoption business stuff. Our lawyer is driving us.
I LOVE these photos!!!!

Your very "techy" Mom keeps leaving messages, but then they are not there the next day. I do not know what I am not doing right, but here's another try when Dad is awake.
ReplyDeleteSo we are elated for you and for us! We are so in love with our grand babies. You both look so happy too. Praise the Lord. Praying for John's arm. Will it effect the visit to the embassy? We are loving you all and looking forward to seeing your little family on the 15th.
Loving you always, your loving mother who loves you, Mom for us all
