Our adoption of Blessing and Teddy from Liberia.
Deuteronomy 10:17& 18 "...the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality and accepts no bribes. He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the alien, giving him food and clothing."
We are adopting 2 children from Liberia and are dreaming that they will be home by Christmas.
They are a girl named Blessing, and a little boy named Teddy. Blessing will be age 2 December 27th and has special needs of crossed eyes, rubbery slow movements, and inability to walk probably due to weak ankles. She can stand against furniture and crawl. Teddy's birth mother died about 2 years ago.
I am Lily, and my daughter Susan is also writing some of this, and we can hardly keep straight who did what, so you will probably never know either. We love Jesus and, we live in an extended family. There is my husband Doug, my 11 year old son Patrick, Susan, my grown daughter, her husband Brad, and their 4 children, and me, Lily.
We moved to Ireland a year and a half ago. We used to live in Colorado in the United States, maybe I'll tell you more about that sometime.
I have dreamed of adopting since I was a little four year old girl, and we are finally doing it.
