Together at Last

Dearest Desi,

You are ours.

Since our mom left early Friday morning life has been crazy. It wasn't until 11pm last night that we heard anything from her! She had a very terrible experience just trying to get to the hotel that included getting lost in more than one airport, getting left until 3am because the guide forgot to get her, and arriving at a hotel that wasn't ready for her! Honestly, she might be the bravest person we've ever met. Her love for you has given her strength to go to a far away country alone, not speaking the language, and encountering such scary things. Thankfully, the Lord is always good and has provided protection and strength I don't think she ever thought she had.

And now you are together. We love hearing about you-especially how you made yourself right at home when you met our mom. And we love that you are already letting our mom know despite the language barrier that you are all about some bows. With 3 sisters, there will never be a lack of girly-ness. We are so ready to meet you. The anxiety is killing us!

What we don't love is how sick you are. Our mom said you have a horrible cough, a runny nose, and maybe even an upper respiratory infection. Though this isn't good, it is nothing that love from her and prayer from thousands of miles away can't heal.

Just so you know, we are surviving just fine with dad in charge. We ate a very manly meal last night that consisted of beans, rice, and cornbread. We also watch a lot of football and walk around in parka's because he for him it always feels like 100 degrees. But it is all worth it.

We love you Desi. You are being prayed for and you are being loved from half an ocean away.

And Desi, you are coming home.

Enjoy our mom, we miss her lots,

Devan, Jordan, and Jenna
