Markenely and the soccer game!

Markenely has been in the U.S. for less than 4 months. So you can understand that we would be a little apprehensive to throw him into a great social sport event such as soccer. Well we did anyway and today was his first game. The first quarter he just sat on the field near the Goal Box not moving a bit. Even with the action swirling around him, he didn't budge. We encouraged him tremendously but to no avail. The second quarter he sat on the sidelines. But by the third quarter he finally found his soccer legs and was off and running. His smile filled his face. It was a great joy seeing him have so much fun. He only kicked the ball once, but he was on the field having a blast. This is a some of the footage from the game. Enjoy.

Soly goes for a spin!

Markenley and Solomon came home in May. Life has not been the same since! We have been joyfully exhausted day after day! We wouldn't change it for the world. To see how the boys have adjusted so quickly is a blessing! The pic above is just one example of kids being kids. We've experienced quite a few of these moments. And laughed are pants off. Thank you Father for amazing love and allowing us to be a part of our kids lives!
