I was reading another family's blog this afternoon & came across this disturbing video. I think everyone in our country should watch & think--do we really want this man running our country?? We value life. Do you?

Susannah Update

Susannah is home but has been admitted into the hospital. Her heart defect is much worse than her referral indicated. She will have a cath procedure tomorrow & possibly open heart surgery next week. Leslie (the mom) is having a rough time right now with the lack of attachment & such--you can read more about it on their blog (just click the Susannah button). Please continue to keep the entire family in your prayers.

Hook'em Horns

This awesome shirt was PJ's when he was much younger! PJ passed it down to Philip & then it was passed down to Ashlyn a couple of years ago. I wish I could post Philip's picture in it also but that was before our digital camera! Hook'em Horns!

Susannah Adopted

The Irwins finalized the adoption today & Susannah is able to come home to the States. Susannah has already been on a two hour plane trip! I'm sure the Irwins can not wait to get home. Susannah looks so much better in the pictures. God is amazing!

Susannah Update

Another AWAA family in China posted an update on their blog-

"Update on the family – they got to take Susannah to get her passport picture made today which is great news! And they will hopefully be taking her on to Guangzhou tomorrow morning to get her home quickly and on to Vanderbilt. We are praising God for all he has done in this situation!"

I thought you guys would love this update! I sure do.
Have a great weekend!

Susannah's Update

Susannah is doing much better today. Yeah! Please continue to pray for this family & Susannah. Also, pray for Susannah's nanny (kinda like a really nice foster mom in the US). I'm sure this is very difficult for her. She has not left the hospital in days. I think that I read that Susannah has been with the nanny for three years!
The family opened their blog back up. If you have a chance, get on and check it out. Their family is precious. There is also a brief video of Susannah at the end of the posting.

You can click on the "Susannah Button" to the right & it will take you to their blog.

Prayer Request for AWAA Family

I do not know this AWAA family personally but I have been following their adoption blog. They are in China. They had their "gotcha day" in a hospital room yesterday. Their daughter, Susannah, is very sick. They need to get Susannah back to the States for proper medical help. Their blog is
