All to the Glory of Him: Removal of Photos

Our life is nothing short of an adventure...

Wind in our hair and screams of delight but also unpredictable turns and unknown outcomes. We are a family of six; Dave, Susie, Nate, Jake, Sam, and Bella.

God has been faithful in our marriage and through the birth and blessings of our boys.

God has been faithful during our adoption journey and united Bella with us in May of 2008. We were privileged to visit with Bella's birth mother; therefore, Bella's family in Guatemala will always be dear to our hearts.

On October 16, 2008, Bella was diagnosed with ALL Leukemia. We are now battling the disease with 2 years and 3 months of treatment. We believe God will continue to be faithful!

Our family is committed to living life to the fullest...even on the hard days. Thank you for checking in and journeying with us!

Removal of Photos

Just wanted to let everyone know that our agency informed us that as part of our contract we are not allowed to post pictures of our daughter until she is home....so to honor our contract, I removed all photos. So sad about this, but it wont be long now and her photos will be back up again!

We have been so blessed with emails and calls of people who want to help us through this time of treatment for our daughter. Per suggestion of our social worker and friend, we are posting here what we feel will be most beneficial to our family at this time. Although the help is easy to give, its hard to receive, but we have been told by medical professionals an social workers that we will need it. Your love and support mean so very much to us, thank you.

1. Prayer, please see "Pray with Us"
2. Meals
3. Car Pooling from school
4. Continued emails and blog posts with encouraging words. (This means more to us than you can possibly know.)
5. Loving on our boys, this will be a time of sacrifice for them.
6. Child Care
7. GIVE BLOOD! Where ever you live, please give blood in honor of Bella. Save a life!

We want to personally recognize and thank all of you who have graciously helped us in one way or another. Whether its through meals, house cleaning, driving, errands, donations, gifts, etc. We so appreciate you and recognize the blessing from God in all of you. Every moment of every day we are privileged to see the face of Jesus in all of you. From our home to yours, thank you and "May God bless you and hold you in the palm of His hand."
Please note, your emails and posts are greatly appreciated and needed just as much as any monetary blessing, please continue to do so as they lift us up daily.

Our Praise from Psalm 103

With all my heart, we Praise the Lord,
And with all that we are, we Praise His Holy Name.
With all our heart, we Praise the Lord,
and we will never forget how kind he has been.
His kindness and love are a crown on our heads.
Each day that we live, He provides for our needs
and gives us the strength of a young eagle.
For all who are mistreated, the Lord brings justice.
You oh Lord are merciful, kind and patient,
your love never fails.
How Great is our God!
You are kind to all who worship you,
You keep your promises to those who faithfully obey you
All of you who serve and obey God,
come and Praise your Lord!
With all our hearts,
We PRAISE the Lord!

Our life is nothing short of an adventure...
