Last Sunday, we were so blessed to have so many friends stop by and see Lydia for the first time! We had such a great time and want to thank everyone who took precious time out of their day to join us!
Tonya, Sandy, and Joan did an awesome job providing goodies, cake, fruit, and flowers. Way to go and thank you SO MUCH for all you did!!!!!!!!!
These friends also graciously donated money to an organization called, “Packages of Hope”, which is located in Tulsa, OK. This organization raises funds specifically for Lydia’s orphanage (QianJiang Social Welfare Institute). They asked us to shoot for a goal of between $250 and $500 in order to set up a library at the orphanage. All together, we raised $460 – YAHOOO!!!!
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!! You all have literally changed the lives of all of the orphans who will live there!
What a blessed day – we are overwhelmed with gratitude!!!!!!!!!!













Jackie,
Looks like you had a fabulous party introducing Lydia to all of your family and friends.
Hope you guys had a fabulous 1st Thanksgiving with Lydia. We were with my side of the family where Abigail got to meet cousins for the first time. She walks everywhere now – like a drunken sailor mind you. And I am just amazed by her determination! She does not get frustrated and cry she just keeps pushing and pushing until she gets what she wants. Did I mention how stubborn and strong willed she is?!? Uh, I’d say we have our hands full.
Happy Three Month Anniversary since Lydia day! We are amazed at the progress our little ones have made!
Merry Christmas!
Alyzabeth’s Mommy for Three Months too!
