We Met!

We are set to go meet our daughter!  Suitcases filled with gifts for the orphange!


The orphanage! 
What a beautiful and clean home, full of love for the children!
The door on the second floor to her home.


A friend wrote:
I am praying that when you arrive tomorrow that Punya RUNS into your arms and greets you with “Mama and Daddy!”
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TODAY AT 10:30 A.M.

It happened so fast, we entered the home and our gaze fell on a group
of children playing a board game on the floor. 

And THE WORDS...
"Mommy!"
"Daddy!"
and I found myself hugging my daughter. 
So fast that we didn't even have the camera ready!


We were able to watch the children in their daily routine.
Coloring...
Board games...
Lunch...

We were even able to take Punya out for an hour and meet the rest of the family
which was a surprise and a blessing.   
Spoiling her with an ice cream cone in one hand and a lollipop in the other!
Our first family picture!
Sisters!
Ella and Punya!
Meg and Punya!
Ava and Punya!
Livi and Punya!
