There is no question in my mind that we are living a full fledged, only God, bigger than life miracle.
Our youngest daughter, Olivia, was only three months old when God began to really break our hearts for the fatherless. Olivia turned three in August, and the very next month, we brought home BOTH of […] Read more…
