Today marks 3 months since we arrived back on U.S. soil with our boys. We left as two and came home as four. We met them exactly 4 months ago on September 15. How blessed we are! We cannot believe how much they have changed and grown. We see their personalities blossoming, their skills developing, and their understanding of English improving. They bring us joy and delight every day. They bring us to our knees as we realize our inadequacy and strengthen our faith as we see their child-like trust. They are learning to love each other, pray, obey, read books, and sleep. :) We are so thankful for God's gift to us. We feel we have known Calvin and Patrick forever. Truly these children were born in our hearts. We rejoice in God giving us the desire of our hearts.

I am so glad that you have those little one's!! I know it has been a long, hard road for you all!!
Aw, such a cute picture. Look at Calvin's dimples! :)
Your boys have been a blessing to you, your whole family, and to many others. We're glad that God put them in your hearts. :)
I will always remember that because I had Olivia while you were over there! They are such sweet boys. I so wish we lived closer! Maybe someday!!!
I love how you are holding the boys together by their overall straps. How hilarious!

Ryann and family
