Another celebration !!!!

It has been hard to keep this one bottled up over the weekend. Last Friday our friend Donna (also from America) received her adoption orders for her new son, aged 9! Yeah !!!!! She is a strong woman. She was widowed a few years back, but in spite of her indescribable loss, she decided to follow her heart and expand her family. The result was the incredible blessing of receiving a young man named Bernard into her life. And she will tell you that she will never be the same again after bringing her son home!

We had the privilege of celebrating with Donna and Bernard over Chinese food. And it was some good food, too. Just like a few weeks ago when Pastor Samuel and Pamela picked up their new daughter from Happy Life Children’s Home, we believe there was a party in heaven last Friday. Another child is no longer an orphan!

Please enjoy the pics below. And please tell our other friends that the blog is back in business :-)

Sundi and Bernard were relishing the moment

But Damon and Mama Sundi were just as thrilled!

Bernard decided to take some flashes to commemorate the evening.

It was impossible to fully capture Mama Bernard's joy in a photo, but we tried anyway!

Sadly, after we all gorged ourselves, it was time to go home. The kids reluctantly accepted this fact.

And we posed for one last memory of the evening.


Wait a minute.....Bernard iko wapi? Where is the guest of honor? Sawa, sawa. OK, here he is.

NOT The End !!!!
