WELCOME HOME ERICK!!!

Another boy is home!!! Erick arrived yesterday at around 3:20 in the afternoon! The flight was right on time and there was a HUGE crowd waiting for his arrival. Samuel was very excited to see his friend! :) When they arrived, everyone cheered! Lee Anne was beaming! Pat's mom couldn't wait to welcome them home!!!

I think Erick was happy to see his friend again! It was like they'd never been apart! Pat's mom and dad are very happy their grandson is home. Look at those smiles!!!

Erick was so sweet! He actually came up to me and held up his arms for me to hold him! My heart melted - of course!
Cindy was so cute! She held Samuel and Erick non-stop! She is amazing with these children! She's such a beautiful and loving little girl!
It was so wonderful to see Lee Anne. She has been in Guatemala with Erick since January! I am so thankful that Emily and Lee Anne are both home now! It is going to be a wonderful Thanksgiving for both of their families.
Each of us in the below picture currently have one Guatemalan child home (of course Keegan has been home the longest) :) , and Dawn and I are praying Caterin and Otoniel will not be much longer! :)
Hold on precious Otoniel. We're coming soon!!! We are very much looking forward to your arrival!

Felicia,
Sometimes it seems almost easier to "weep with those who weep", than to "rejoice with those who rejoice", especially when your heart is aching/waiting for what those around you have received. I admire your heart, Felicia, for it is clear to all who see you that you are truly rejoicing for the families who have been united. You certainly are a light to those around you. Please know that we are praying for Otoniel and Caterin and for you and Dawn to make the pick-up trip together. That will be a very, very special homecoming!!!
