A year ago today I had the privilege of meeting Tamandani-Joy, Sadala-Faith and Jameson, the full biological siblings of Savannah-Hope. It was a very emotional day. You can read about it here.
There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about those children. They are truly the children of my heart. A year later, Joy and Faith are living at the Good Samaritan Children’s Home staying in the same room that was home to Savannah-Hope for 7 months of her life. They are being lovingly cared for by two nannies and are thriving. They have monthly well-child checks. This month’s exam was on 3/20/09 and they had each gained a pound. Joy now weighs 23 lbs and her sister is 27 lbs 5 oz. They have only been at the Children’s Home for two months and have made tremendous strides in their health and development. A loving family from New York has sent a generous financial gift to Jameson so that his needs may be met in his village. God is so Good! We are so thankful to the Lord for these three precious miracles and for allowing us to be a part of their lives, even if it is across the world. Thank you so much for your prayers!
We are heading out of town for a few days of fun in the warm sunshine with our children and extended family.
Please pray for my Nana as we got news today that she is experiencing a medical problem with her eyes. We are hoping for more conclusive information tomorrow. Please lift her up in prayer.

I am amazed that it has been a year already. I was there reading along and falling in love also. It is unbelievable that I still don't have our Franceska home yet. It won't be long now.
A year ago God put something in your heart that will be there for the rest of your life, and that is a true blessing, because your heart was changed so much for the better on that day. You are a wonderful person.
Love, Kristy
Hi, We are friends of Chrissie. She was our adopted son's social worker. We love her and we love following the stories of the Lord working through her in Malawi. The post about Jameson, Joy and Faith hit my heart very hard. I want to adopt them. I know that it is not possible at this time but I do pray for them daily. I feel very burdened for Jameson who didn't get to go to Good Samaritan. I hope he will know the love of his heavenly Father even if he never knows the love of an earthly one. Many blessings to your sweet family. It is so wonderful to see the pictures of SH. She looks so happy!
Love in Jesus,
Amy in Atlanta
