There are a lot of really incredible things that are going on in our lives. As we are in the beginning stages of getting down to Haiti to run this orphanage and to be there with our kids, it seems like there is always something to do. And in the midst of that, this summer, […]
Just so you know, the kids are doing great! They are looking more and more healthy each time we see them, and we love them more and more each time we go down! They are so awesome, sweet, caring, and just incredible. I wish everyone who was reading this could meet them. There is a […]
So, we just got back from Haiti this past Thursday after a couple of weeks being down there. This trip was great in so many ways. We took a team down for the first week and then Jess and I stayed for an extra week to try and get some things accomplished that we have […]

Have you ever noticed how faith can be so easy and so hard at the same time? All the time I try to think and say that I have faith that GOD will bring our kids to us in His timing, and logically that makes sense. Logically, it even makes sense that GOD is doing […]
I was just talking to a friend of mine that I haven’t talked to in a while, and we were just catching up a little, and of course the subject turned to Haiti. I started telling him about how much work we had done, how much more work we still have to do, and then […]
