Long over due pics!

Yes Yes Yes, I am a crazy spartan fan that can't get enough pictures of my little Spartans in green and white and I finally got my dream picture of the three of us by Sparty!!! I am so thrilled that my Spartans are in the Final Four! I couldn't ask for a better homecoming gift!!!!!!

We went up to MSU to the high school track meet that my dad was coaching at and I got to see some of the athletic trainers that I used to work with and the kids got to see the campus a bit, play in the athletic training rooms and run on the indoor football practice field! It was tons of fun!



We also went out to pole vault practice with my dad and both kids had fun "learning" how to pole vault. Ecrissa loved it! She did a pretty good job too!!!!


The kids are having a wonderful time playing with all of the toys at grandma and grandpa Sessions house. They are getting lots of attention and they are growing like weeds! They have already grown out of clothes that they were wearing while in Haiti! Unbelievable! We've only been home for 2.5 weeks and they are already growing out of clothes! What do they put in food here???????

These last two pics are from McDonald's. Yes, I had to take my kids to play on the playground at McDonald's. Now, Jaryse thinks that every fast food restaurant is called McDonald's and he thinks that they all should have a slide!



How am I doing??? Well, I have noticed some weird things. Like, things that come out of the refrigerator are really really cold. Have refrigerators in the State always been this cold??? Also, the hot water that comes out of the shower head is really really hot. Has water always been this hot???? I also find myself shutting of lights and leaving them off for a long time. My dad will walk into the house and say "hey, don't ya' want some light???" Interesting, I didn't think that I was that good at keeping lights off in Haiti, apparently, I was better than I thought! I am doing pretty good other than that. We are planning our trip back to LA. I have appointments scheduled for Ecrissa to get her hearing formally tested and an appointment with a surgeon for the Cochlear Implant. We will see what they say and we'll see if she qualifies for the surgery. I am nervous for all that is about to come, but very excited as well!
I am still a bit in shock that we are here. Sometimes I think, well, when we get the adoption done, then I can make that decision......OH Wait, the adoption is done, I can make that decision! Wow! Still a bit surreal!
more later!

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!!!!
