Missing our sons

I posted these pics because I was missing the boys so much yesterday. We are still in a waiting game - waiting on Silas' passport and Louis' file in IBESR. I am reassured by the fact that Silas is ours. He has our name. He is legally ours according to the Haitian government - his documents have our name as his surname. I have done studies before on how God uses names to indicate a changed life (an awesome thing to look up) - for instance...Saul became Paul,(whose best friend was guess who??? SILAS :) I am excited for Silas Jeff Tugwell that he has our name and will be in our home in a matter of time. I will continue to trust God that HE will do the same for Louis.
The picture of Louis was taken in January by the orphanage volunteers. Isn't he handsome! The picture of Silas with Noel was taken last July - it has been almost a year since Noel has seen him - I know it is very hard for Noel, they got so close that week. The picture of Silas and I was taken in October. It will bring me SO much joy to post pictures of him at home - prayerfully in the next few months!

Love to all,
lori

Dear Tugwell Family,
I am praying that both your boys will be home soon! They are so lucky that God chose your family for them to become a part of. Lily has 2 handsome brothers.
Love you guys!
