Well....I'll keep the blog

So, I had more than one request to keep the blog. So, I'll keep it! I am honored that this blog blesses even one person, let alone more than one!

So, I got a new computer and have enjoyed some of the new things that I can do with it. It has been kinda fun.


Over spring break the kids and I went to Frederik Meijer Gardens with my dad and step-mom. We had a blast!!! It was colder than I would have requested for it to be, but we had fun anyway!

I know that having family, especially grandpa's and grandma's around us is the most beneficial thing that has happened since moving back to Michigan. The JOY that my children emit when they are with their grandparents melts my heart. Jaryse explodes with happiness when there is a grandparent around. If nothing else was good for us here in Michigan (which is not true, there are lots of good things), the relationships that my children have with all of their grandparents far out weighs anything else.


Jaryse had another belt testing this week and he is now an orange strip belt. He is getting more and more confident and watching him mature has been so much fun!

Art, Ecrissa, and her friend!!!

So, I think, Ecrissa has an imaginary friend and she is so cute with this little friend. She will often look off to the the side and use sign language with this little friend. Sometimes I'll tell Ecrissa to "come" and she'll actually look up at her "friend" and sign "wait", telling her friend to wait for her there!!! It's so cute. Anyway, the two video's are with my friend Art, who apparently was introduced to Ecrissa's friend. He even got to share his food with her! My digital camera takes video without sound, so there isn't any sound with this, but really, the only sound missing is Ecrissa's giggling all the way through!!!!!! This is the second bit, where you can actually see Ecrissa giggle!!!!! My little girl sure does keep me on my toes and laughing!!!! Gotta love her to pieces!!!!!

We are home.

Wow!!!!! What a day!!!!! We (and I mean all three of us!!!! Wow, my kids are in the states!!!! What an amazing thing!) have arrived in MI and made it safely to my dad's house. It was a long day, but the kids did really well. They loved the airplane and Jaryse loved looking at "the city" as we flew over Miami last night. I held it all together until we landed in Miami and I heard the pilot or whoever say "welcome to Miami" at that point I cried. I couldn't believe I had actually made it to the USA with my two little munchkins. I had a smooth time through immigration both in Port au Prince and in Miami, and both flights went smoothly. I am so thankful to the Lord for protecting us through this whole ordeal and making these last few steps easier than the first few! I am still in a bit of shock, although, it might just be that I am FREEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZING. Maybe after I get used to the cold my brain and body will work a little more efficiently! I am so t...

So, today at about 2:37, I was driving and I prayed to the Lord, Father, I know this isn't too big for you! I really really would like passports today. I know the office is almost closed, but Father, please, let them release my passports, if the guy has already checked, please lay it on his heart to check again and let the office release them! I prayed this prayer, until I parked my car, about 2:40, walked into a store, walked out and noticed a missed call at 2:45, I called it back, it was the guy who was checking on passports---WE GOT THEM!!!!!! WE HAVE OUR PASSPORTS!!!!!!!!! Did you hear a really loud OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that was me this afternoon! I am so very very excited! I can hardly think straight! Thank you for all your prayers!!!! I know they work! I see it in my life everyday, and I am convinced! Prayer is powerful!!!!!! Praise the Lord for He is GOOD!!!!
