Thanks, Stephanie! So glad you can relate to my thoughts. India is actually on my list of one of the next places I’d like to go.

Things are going really well with the boys. Some days have their challenges but we feel so blessed.

I love, love, love your words. I work pretty closely with a group in rural India and I have often ask myself it really matters. If all you ever do is change one life…you’ve changed that world for them. Keep it up! God bless and Merry Christmas! We are kindred spirits. I would love to adopt someday. Thankfully we are able to sponsor a couple of beautiful kids and someday hope to bring them home. How are things going with the beautiful boys?

Hi – So nice to hear from you! Actually….my sister and brother-in-law are the ones adopting the sisters!! I have been meaning to post a follow-up. I’ll have to do that this week. They were with us on our second trip when we met the girls. A couple months after our return, we were all still praying for the girls when they decided THEY were the family. They’re well into the process now and we’re hoping for a 2012 homecoming.

I hadn’t heard about the boy and am so happy to hear that as well!

You don’t know me… I just somehow came across your blog tonight. BUT I just wanted to let you know that the 10 year old boy you speak of AND the two sisters have both been chosen for adoption .. I wasn’t sure if you knew, and after reading this, I just knew that I had to tell you!

I’m hoping that being aware is the first step. I know we both truly want our kids to understand what it means to give.

You’re so right, Mindy. Christmas is an especially tough time to keep perspective.

I’ve been all over the world in similar situations and struggle with the same thing. American culture is so strong. What a good reminder in the midst of such a commercial season.

This is so true and I would love to know the answer to this question. With the holidays upon us I continue to face an internal battle that rages every year. Do I REALLY need anything for Christmas from my husband and kids when I know that money could help meet daily needs of others in our community or around the world. Is it really better to give than receive. Receiving is so much fun and I try to teach that to our children but do I really believe it? With our “own” orphans still struggling in an orphanage this year I will say I have opted to see that money go to purchasing animals for farmers in Africa. I just hope next Christmas when we have our girls home it won’t ALL be a distant memory.
