Meeting at the airport

Well thank you so much everyone for you prayers!  We drove to the airport with Karen and Brett Lazo, meeting Phil Lazo there.  (He brought us Chick Filet!)  The Lazo's are hosting a boy (14) named Nikita.  We had a pretty long wait, but enjoyed meeting other host families, including Julie Martin (Of Martin's Potato Rolls!), who is hosting two brothers up in Chambersburg, PA., and her sister Jackie.   Erin Runkles was waiting with us too, as she is hosting one of the chaperones.  She has sure been a source of encouragement to us!  Meeting all those families, and some of whom have previously hosted, was so encouraging.  But the longer the wait, the more nervous I felt.  When we saw Eduards and Helena finally, they looked quite a bit different than their pictures, but WONDERFUL!!!
They are so handsome, and beautiful, and SWEET!!!!  And guess what - they speak and understand some English, which is GREAT!  So, I am going to bed very thankful, and praying that Eduards and Helena will have a peaceful night's sleep.  Thank you again for praying for us, God is hearing and answering your prayers!
