Hello from India

Hello everyone,

Once again it is Cheryl posting for Wayne, Dawn and kids. We talked to all of them this evening on the phone. It was Wed. morning for them. They had a big Indian breakfast and were getting ready to head back to Bethesda to spend the day with the kids. They fly to meet up with Rajeev early Thursday morning. (Which will be about 8:00 P.M. Wed eve CST) Then they will travel to the orphanage and meet Carly!!!

Here are a few quotes from the family: (they spent all day at Bethesda Children's Home and all of them loved it!! They had a blast playing with the kids and getting to know them.


Mitch "Wow all the soccer made me not be able to bend my knees!"

Austin " How's my puppy and the kids are so much fun."

Zac "Wow"

Kristina "We left America in the afternoon, arrived in Amsterdam in early morning, arrived in India very late at night, it was so confusing. Bethesda was amazing"

Wayne "No Gene I am not feeling comfortable going for an auto rickshaw ride without any doors around me. (I think he is missing his volvo!!)

Dawn "Tell everyone hi, we miss them, thanks for praying and to all my fellow CDT friends, praying as you start your first performances!"

They went through customs with no issues and were very thankful for that. They all send their love and thank you all for your prayers. Drop them notes they should be able to have internet access in the next day or so!!

Your sleeping and I am just pulling out my last pie (lemon supreme, pumpkin and apple). Sorry, but you get a daughter-how delicious is that?!!!! My eyes are pouring out tears for you as I think of the feelings you must be feeling and will feel tomorrow!!!
Charish each moment as we will need to scrapbook all that - smile.
