We've just returned from a family reunion in Missouri, and I must say it was a much needed vacation. Once again, while we were hundreds of miles away from home, God managed to work his magic in our lives. While we were at the park in Sedalia, MO for the reunion, some of the family members decided to continue a longtime family tradition and take a train ride through the park. Well, low and behold, who comes strolling up but a mother and her beautiful "China Doll." We were blessed once again to become acquainted with a lady from Sedalia who, along with her husband, has adopted from China. Elaina (I hope I'm spelling it correctly) was simply beautiful. We realize it was God's way of sending us a message to be patient and wait for His plan to be carried out. We were also blessed to witness Troy's 2nd cousin, Lydia, who was born premature and is now a healthy 7 year old, donate almost 200 Beanie Babies to the local LifeFlight helicopter crew. It was on a similar helicopter that Lydia was rushed to a larger hospital after her birth and her life was saved. The Beanies will be given to sick children who are also patients on LifeFlight. What a beautiful thing to witness.
