We received some very exciting news today! Two little girls will be joining our extended family a week and a half from now!
My older brother, Jon, and his wife, Jenetta, have been seeking to adopt for a while now. Today they made the decision to move forward with 2 little girls, aged 3 and 4, and they will be coming to live with them on March 29! We are extremely excited about this news and what this means for Jon and Jenetta! They have so much love to give and will be a tremendous blessing to these young sisters. They will be living with them as foster kids until the adoption is complete.
This will be a huge transition for them and they have a very short period of time to finalize details for the arrival of the girls. Their lives are about to change in a very signifcant way, but they are excited and eager to enter this new stage of life. They would greatly appreciate your prayers as they seek to make the transition a positive one for the girls. You can probably imagine that being uprooted and moving into an unfamiliar home with strangers can be very traumatic for anyone. Jon and Jenetta are especially concerned that the girls realize that this change is not happening because they did anything wrong - it's not their fault! But that can be difficult for young minds to grasp.
Jon has also recently taken a new job and is transitioning with that as well, so they are facing many changes and adjustments right now.
We will not be posting the names or photos of the little girls until the adoption is complete, but for now we will be referring to them as O and L.
Welcome to the family O & L! We are so excited to meet you and are praying for you as you transition into a new life with a new family! You will be blessed and very dearly loved!
