What a different summer this has been.  One job has ended and another has began.  My hope is that this job will be a better fit for our family.  Working full time from 5am until 1:45 was very hard on out family.  Some days the  babysitters just wouldn't come, luckily with the new job I will not have to worry about this.  School starts here on August 25.  I am one mama that is happy for the normal routine to begin again.  Graedy is going into 7th grade,  Elise is going into 5th, Elijah is going into 3rd, and Sneha will be in 2nd grade.

We had a great time this summer at CCAI(chinese children adoption international) reunion picnic.  What a great sight to see all the children saved and placed with families.  CCAI has brought home over 8,000 children  into  loving families.  If every Christian family adopted just one child there would be no more orphans in the world.  The faces of the orphan are the same cute children that sit next to us in church or we see at the fair.  The big difference is the orphaned child does not have a future, no parental love, no guidance, and no one to turn to when they leave the orphanage released to the streets.
