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.

Just wanted to share more pictures of David, Amber's baby, as you can see he is happy, and healthy with his grandpa :)

"Joey got a haircut"

Little Joey got a haircut Monday, and it's like pulling teeth trying to cut this boy's hair, on one hand i just want to say forget the haircut's it's not worth it to watch him squirm, and fidget, and then cry on top of that, i will just let his hair grow and he can look like one of the Jonas Brothers, but then i see him with this fresh haircut and he looks adorable, plus he has the softest hair, and i love to rub his head, i love boys with short hair, dilemma, i know.  What's a mom to do, the joys of parenting.  LOL.

This is David, Amber's baby.  I received this picture yesterday from his grandpa.  David is living with his grandpa, in the Roatan, and seems to be doing very well.  Amber, as of last week, is now back here in Zambrano living at the Missions House.  She really felt like she needed to come back.  She was in the states for Christmas and then came back with her dad, and David to Roatan, but realized that she is not ready to be in the real world just yet, too many memories.  But everyone was in agreement that David has family that loves him, and can take care of him, and so that's were he is.  I am thankful to the Lord that He takes care of ALL our needs, and He loves us that much to do so.  I will be getting updates on David periodically, and as i get them i'll share them with you all.  I do miss that little guy, but i have peace in my heart and i know that he is in the right place, and receiving lots of love and attention, just how it should be.

Kevin

This is the most recent picture of Kevin, Maria's baby, he is absolutely adorable, and huge, he is the fattest baby, i think, in Honduras.  He is now 8 months old, and i just wanted to share this picture with everyone, he is precious.  Enjoy.
