Meet Abiella McConnell!!

It's official!! We are now a family of three!!!!



More details on court and our THREE DAYS in the hotel with Abiella coming soon!

For now, I'm in the hotel in Ghana waiting for my ride to the airport. (And for those have been asking, we will not be able to bring Abiella home today. We still have to wait for the visas, passports, etc.  But hopefully by late summer she'll be on a plane headed home!)

Thank you SO MUCH for all of the prayers and encouragement.  I can not begin to explain how much we felt them, and what a miracle this trip has been.

Praise God!!! We're PARENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't even begine to tell you how much I have been thinking of the McConnell clan (all 3 of you!) since I got your e-mail. Come home so I can hug you and cry with you and make you tell me the story of how God gave her to you a million times in a row. It's going to be my favorite!
