Sana and KK (Michaela)… so beautiful.. inside and out!

Telma is having a great time in Hawaii!  We miss her like crazy! Things are definitely not the same without her.  She is really enjoying her Youth With A Mission training and after she’s completed her time in Hawaii, she’ll be going to Rwanda to do her outreach, working with orphans! We’re so proud of her!!   Telma is making lots of friends and is really enjoying all she’s learning in her training.  She’s journaling a lot as well and is excited about what the Lord is speaking to her heart.  Telma has 5 roommates and has an amazing view from her bedroom window.  Having been raised in the Marshall Islands and then moving to the states, it was kind of fun for her to move to Hawaii during her Compassion Discipleship Training.  It’s like a little taste of heaven for her, having the beach very close and all the gorgeous flowers, trees and mountains right at her front door!

The rest of our tribe is doing great!  Our twins (Teyolla and Keyolla) are out of school and learning to drive. We’ve had a few scary moments on the road but some good laughter too (isn’t that what learning to drive is all about?).  They’re excited about getting their driver’s license.  Tey and Key are such a great help to all our children and are such a ray of sunshine in our lives!

Leeann is doing fabulously well in school!  She is zooming ahead and actually loves her schoolwork!  She is such a joy and has such a precious spirit! We are blessed to have her as ours!

Our newest daughter Sana is adjusting so well. It’s like she’s never not been ours. She is so happy and full of life! She loves to wrestle with Derek. He says she’s 1/3 princess, 1/3 comedian and 1/3 ninja warrior!  I think he’s right!!

Silas will be having his heart surgery on November 2nd.  The surgeon will be closing a large hole in his heart.  We would appreciate your prayers.  Silas, Ethan and Sasha have only been in the U.S. for a short time and are both doing so much better physically and emotionally!  All the boys have birthdays in November!  We will have a great time celebrating their little lives!!

Sophia and Michaela (our biological daughters) are so amazing! They love all their adopted brothers and sisters and are always working on plans to raise funds for orphans. They do everything from selling lemonade and cookies to putting on plays etc… to raise money for orphans from around the world.  They have such compassionate hearts and we are so proud of who they are.

Thanks to all of you for your prayers and your support!  We appreciate you greatly and are humbled by your love!

Hugs and blessing to you all!
