Message from our son...



A mom that is in Ghana now bringing home her children has been able to spend some time with Kwame. Today she showed him the blog post below and then typed his response. This is what he said....

This is from your son:
I want to see my mom and dad. I want my mom and dad to come here. I am happy that Akwasi is there. I like my brother and my sisters. I like my family and I want to see them soon. I want to see grandpa and grandma. I want to see my dog. I like cats too. I like race cars and small model cars and I like bicycles. I want to play football with my brother.

How sweet! I can't tell you how much things like this help the wait go just a bit faster... I wonder how many times I will read these words before he comes home... hundreds of times I am sure! Guess what little man will be getting a hotwheel included in his welcome bag?!! Kman is so excited to hear that a soccer game has been requested by his new brother! Thank you Grace!:-)

Thank you for sharing that! So sweet- I can't wait to hear that he's home. Hopefully sooner rather than later. Prayers that the process is smooth and quick.

It is so awesome to think that a Mommy is there to cuddle and play with our children! May they all come safely home soon!
