**We waited for them to arrive..and let me tell ya... 5 kids at the airport by myself is kind of nutty:
Daddy was still working and George and LL kept running from me... Phewww....glad when daddy arrived to help :)
My kids are so excited to see the NEW kids arrive...
And, here THEY COME....
I love seeing the families come together...sooo sweet....
And, here (below) is Mrs. Poppy Dip herself ..with Mr. Poppy and new son....Sweet little Samson Jude was a WAITING child...can you even believe it?? I was able to meet him in December on my trip...His smile is so sweet!! My sister over at Ordinary Hero just did a GREAT post on WAITING CHILDREN coming home...the BEFORE and AFTERS are amazing... go check it out!! It is SO surreal to think that THIS little beauty just came from living with my Wes!! So neat!!
And, below was one of my favorite pics...this is big sister and big brother (all from Ethiopia) taking care of their NEW little brother...sooo sweet...I love children's BIG hearts...just precious!!
I especially love at our airport that we have LIVE country music playing as you come off your planes..and the guy today sang, "Jesus Loves the Little Children" as Samson came through the gate with his new parents....Oh, it brought tears to my eyes!!! :)
