Looking back over 2009 it not only was a great year, but a big year for us! In January we found out we were going to be parents and were ecstatic. Josh was able to travel to and serve in Liberia in March and April of 2009 and meet the Jonah Family. We are still trying to find ways to serve those in Monrovia and at the orphanage. 2009 was the year that we found out about Deborah and the possibility to adopt her. August was the birth of our sweet son Damari and the next few months were spent adjusting to parenthood. December was when we got the great news that adoption was once again open in Liberia.
We celebrated New Year's last night with some of our close friends and family. We had our 4th annual New Year's Eve Party and it was a lot of fun. We didn't take as many pictures as normal, but here is one of our family right after midnight.
In 2008 we had no idea of all the blessings we would receive in 2009 and look forward to all the many things that will happen in 2010. We are most hopeful about continuing the adoption process and hopefully getting to bring another member into our house this year. Please continue to pray with us for a quick and easy adoption of process to bring Deborah to our home.
