My Personal favorite.
Sorry I have not posted in a awhile. It has been busy on many fronts. Mary Sue is really wrapped up with what is going at home and I am showing a lot of property.
Timia left us on Saturday. She had a wonderful spirit. Our kids loved her and ask about her daily. She is back with her Grandmother. Mary Sue was there to hand her over to her Grandma. Apparently, she did not look much older than us. It is a good thing for Timia. She is with family and there are older kids in their house that are looking forward to having her back. We have found that the Grandma had been caring for her for about a year now. We think she was actually doing a good job doing so. The state was just unclear about the details so they pulled her out while they investigated. She was glad to be going back. During the exchange Timia was quiet and confused. Hopefully, it is the last stop for Timia. She deserves it. Mary Sue made her a photo album of her time she spent here. She clung to it just as she clung to Mary Sue during her time here.
We got a call this afternoon that there was a 4 month old that needed a placement. At first, we said no. We thought about it (and prayed) then called back. We had a few more questions and decided to take her. We had her in our arms in about an hour. Her name is Wyomee. She is cute but...she is a chub. We have been calling her Mimi.
The kids could not wait to get their mitts on her. They all wanted to hold her bottle and get her to smile. When Ty saw her in the car I asked him if he liked her. He said, "Yes... God made her."
Since the last post Tyler had his birthday party. It was great. It was a sunny day and we had it at a park. There were so many kids. We are lucky. We have great friends here.
Here Mary Sue is leading the marching band...
Here is a cool visual. The church we attend had great symbolism. They were talking about tithing and giving. The kids had a Bible School campaign that they are to give an amount of pennies that, when stacked, would equal their height. During the sermon they had the kids come in through the back of the church. The video and my story does not do it justice...Anyway, Tyler was on of the kids to come in the back and many people teared. It was nice. Check the video below.
