Musings of a mother of many
Eliza and Evangeline have a family.
Sometimes it all seems so surreal.
They’re really here.

The Moghadams have re-posted their blog. You can read their latest update here. I believe that they are now altogether as a family!

Thank you for praying!

This is a video an advocate made of Evangeline when they were looking for her family. It is now updated with our information on the end.
The advocate is working on getting it uploaded to YouTube. In the mean time I thought I’d post it here in the Roxio version.
Enjoy.
And please share.
