Family Time

It has been a while since we had several family members gathered together! We enjoyed the time and it was so fun watching Sebastian play. We always enjoy visits from everybody! Donato and Erika always entertain us. :)

I think Sebastian is a Toy Story Fan! He loved playing with the phone. I think Auntie Sarah thoroughly enjoyed playing with him. What a fun visit!

Learning Eyes and Nose

Sebastian is doing so well. He is such a content and happy little guy. Albina is a good mama and is teaching him all kinds of words. He can talk quite well! He is also understanding "Your nose" and "Mama's nose" I love it when she sends little clips like this to me! :)

Albina

Our little Albina has grown up! She came home at 11 and it has been almost 10 years! She just had a birthday and sent me some photos of herself. :) We are so proud of her! I started writing about her coming home to us in March of 2011. What a journey it has been! We have all learned so very much! Albina is a very talented artist and it comes out in all kinds of ways. Right now she is really getting into aquariums. She has a talent to make them look just beautiful!

Albina is a wonderful mama to her little boy who is going to be 2 years old pretty soon! He is talking up a storm and is the sweetest little guy. He loves cars like his daddy and his dog. And of course, he ADORES his mommy!

I am so excited to see where the Lord brings Albina in the next decade! A LOT happened in 10 years for all of us and what a time it has been! We were taken to places we never expected and the Lord was there with all of us! Ten years ago at this time we had no idea that in less than a month we would be adding another little one to our family. I'm so glad we answered the call. God does not call us to the easy, He calls us to be faithful. What a WISE and LOVING heavenly father we have!

Guess Who Turned 20!

Albina did!  20 on 02-02-2020!  What a special birthday!  She spent it Dirt Biking! :)

Let The Christmas Photos Begin! :)

Well good morning! Sebastian! :)  Oh.My.Heart!

Albina and Sebastian

Six months ago, I had the honor of being at the birth of our grand son Sebastian.
Albina is such a wonderful mama.
Sebastian is growing, healthy and such a happy baby!

Sarah and I got to baby sit recently. :)

                                 Praising the Lord that He is doing so well and that his mama is committed to
                                 raising him. :)
