The Old News:

Just for fun, here's the old family picture, taken in late December, 2006.
 

 Here are some random (and outdated) shots of the kids, doing what they do in daily life:

Now, before you go thinking that I've acquired a bunch of new kids . . . some of these are the children of our new co-workers, Alan and Faith Hayes, and one is a daughter of Brad and Trish Ward, who work in Santa Rosa de Copan. David and Bethany are the two furthest to the left. My kids are enjoying having all these gringo friends to play with! In this picture, however, they are taking a short break from working - they were helping deliver Christmas gifts to the orphans in Santa Rosa de Copan.

     David, of course, rates his own section of pictures . . .

Thanks for remembering to pray for the ongoing process of trying to adopt David.
