Ready...Set...Write...

I can't believe it has been 4 weeks (tomorrow) since we were in Haiti!

In many ways it seems like Louis has been home so much longer - and it also seems like yesterday when we first saw his sweet face and that knowing look in his eyes that everything was going to be OK.

We have reached our new "normal" at our house with 3 fun children - we are outnumbered:) and love it - most of the time:))

After spending nearly every waking moment glued to the computer prior to going to Haiti - it seems strange to spend so little time on it now. I have been focussed on getting Louis comfortable at home. We have been spending time with "school" and learning English, playing games, cooking and eating, exercising, going to the Dr., fun with friends and cousins....ETC. Louis, Lily and Silas are doing great! It has been an adjustment for Silas to get used to another boy in our house getting attention. If you know Silas - you may be able to imagine the charm he has turned on to make up for it - and he has been mischievious at times:) Lily and Louis really enjoy each other - I frequently find Lily reading to the boys in one of their rooms in the morning.

The transition really is going great - we thank God for that...

I am ready to write about the miracle after miracle that we experienced when getting Louis home from Haiti. There are so many details - so I will start writing and put the story in several posts. For now - here are some recent pictures:)

Love to all -

Lori

for all of us at HOME:)
