Psalms 100:4-Enter his gates with Thanksgiving and his courts with praise: Give Thanks to him and praise his name!
2 Corinthians 9:15 - Thanks be to God for his indescribable gifts!
Just wanted to tell all our Family and Friends near and far HAPPY THANKSGIVING! We are so Thankful for each and everyone of you! Of course Thanks and Praise goes out to our Lord Jesus Christ for one another and our precious children. Mark and I were just talking the other day(and always) about how overwhelmed we are with God's provision in our life. Of course too personal and too much to go into, but everything from the journey of bringing us together,on to the 2 adoptions of our children to the building of this house,all of this in 4 short years.(has seemed longer!)
He is amazing, and we are so undeserving and we are Thankful for it all. Here are a few things the children said they were Thankful for:
Me and Mark:
God, each other, family, friends,our children's birth parents(without them we would not have them!) ,our house, car, food, work,our Russian experience and friends over seas, the gift and privilege of adoption, chocolate(oh, that's was me!) and so many, many more!!!
Andrew:
Mommy and Daddy, Morgan, Brennan(his favorite cousin Ha!)(all his family) all his cousins Ashton, Sheridan, Christian, Mee Mee, Paw Paw, Grand, Papa Mitch, Eric, Zachary, Abbe and Transformers!
Morgan: Mommy, Daddy, "Aden"(Andrew), bobbies(barbies) and candy!(oops)
Thank You God for choosing Mark and I for each other, our precious babies, our family, friends, all of our many, many, many blessings , the long journey we have been on and the "getting there" even though it hasn't always been fun, it has been a faith testing, learning, character building, life changing experience. Thank you God most importantly for your forgiveness, grace, mercy, and Son Jesus!! Thank You!!!
We are so blessed beyond our comprehension!
Pics to come, I am behind on my blogging again!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!
