Bunnies




We now have rabbits. I was asked about 2 months ago if i could take a couple of rabbits and put them in a cage in my backyard, and now they are not only running around the yard, and pooping everywhere, they are multiplying, how exciting is that? We have 5 adults, and 5 babies, and more on the way. I love how they are fertilizing my yard. LOL. They are great entertainment for the kids, and for me too. Joey loves to chase after them and hit them on their backside to make them hop, they will spend ours outside chasing them, who needs cable T.V., right? I'll update on the rabbits, soon!

It is official


We are happy to announce that, as of Monday Feb. 16, 2009, we are the proud Substitute Family of Joey. To those that don't know what that means exactly, we are his legal guardians. We signed the paper on Mon. We can now travel with him to the states, if need be, and now since the judge has declared him abandoned, we can immediately start with the adoption process. So that is what we are working on now, and then when that is done we will proceed with Substitute Family status on Kathy. We are very happy, the Lord has been so good, and His favor is amazing. Thanks to all of you that have been praying for this, we love and appreciate you all. We will keep you posted.

God bless you all.

Children on outreach



Joey and Kathy had their first outreach experience.  Some of you may remember little Marvin, the little boy, with cancer, that was coming to the feedings on Saturday's, well we went to his house to visit him and his family, and i thought it would be cool for Kathy, and Joey to bring their left over Christmas candy to give away.  I told them that there were poor children that may not have gotten anything this Christmas, and so i wanted them to share theirs with these kids, and any other kids we came across, of course Kathy was like you want me to do what, but Joey did not seem to mind, as long as i gave him some too!  This family lives in a little village, called La Espino, and it's about 15-20 minutes away from here.  Marvin is doing good, and the cancer is in remission, Praise God!  We plan to go back and visit them soon.  Maybe Joey and Kathy will want to bring something else to give away, we'll see.  I am trying to teach them the importance of giving, i think it's working, LOL.
