<br />
We started out our morning meeting with the director who had invited a local college student to join us. Over the next 5 months she will be helping our daughter with English lessons. Part of that help will include Skype calls with us every Friday.<br />
<br />
It was cold so we left the orphanage and headed straight to the apartment. <br />
<br />
We kept the morning pretty laid back. We played a few games. She wrote down the Bulgarian alphabet for us. We looked at pictures and videos from the week.<br />
<br />
She was hungry so she helped Aaron fry some eggs and ham. We let her try a fried egg both runny and cooked to see which she liked better. She boldly tried both.<br />
<br />
We watched Frozen’s “Let it go” video while at the same time videoing her watching and singing it. Then we watched that video too.<br />
<br />
We gave her a little down time and let her watch a Bulgarian show.<br />
<br />
Then it was time to go. She helped us pack the artwork she gave us and we helped pack her backpack full of things we brought for her.<br />
<br />
We stopped for a bite to eat and then walked back to the orphanage. We spent a little time there watching “Let it go” again. She said she would miss us.<br />
<br />
She walked us to the gate again and along the way jumped into Aaron’s arms off the patio again several times.<br />
<br />
We met one of the shift workers on her way in. She told us that the night before our daughter had been calling out for "Mommy and Daddy". Our daughter shared that she was dreaming of us, and seemed excited to let us know.<br />
<br />
We got to the gate and she hugged us and kissed us several times. Jen tried to hold back tears. We walked away and she yelled for us and ran out and hugged us again. It was hard saying goodbye, but she walked away without tears and said goodbye.<br />
<br />
She loves us and enjoys time with us, but anytime we talk about home and the kids, she shuts down. It is like she likes the idea of being with us, but there in Bulgaria, not in the US.<br />
<br />
Just pray for her heart and for wisdom for us.<br />
<br />
We are spending the night in Sofia. A car will pick us up early in the morning to take us to the airport and begin our trek home.<br />
<br />
Thank you all again for your prayers.<br />

<br />
<br />
Today we got to see where our daughter goes to school. The school has been shut down due to a virus going around. (I guess we picked a great time to visit!)<br />
<br />
We left the school and went to an indoor play park for an hour and a half. We left for lunch and stopped to let our daughter pick out gifts for the older children back home.<br />
<br />
We spent the afternoon back at the apartment, where Jen painted our daughter's nails and we all enjoyed some time together playing with Play-dough. ( and a little TV for down time) before returning with her to the children's home.<br />
<br />
I struggled to write this post because we did have another episode today in the middle of a lot of fun stuff. However the day began and ended well, and in every breakdown we are always working for the breakthroughs. I didn't want to focus on the hurt in the episode, but on what we gained.<br />
<br />
Breakthrough #1: We began to see a pattern in that these always seem to occur mid afternoon. The emotions are legitimate, however, fatigue or hunger often magnifies them. Unfortunately, by the time we are realizing this, our week is over. When we return, we may have to be dilligent in establishing a routine down time in the afternoons.<br />
<br />
Breakthrough #2: Our daughters efforts at triangulation between Jen and I were addressed. We may have to work thru this again when we return, but today the line was made clear. <br />
<br />
Breakthrough #3: After the episode, with no prompting from us or the interpreter, our daughter apologized for her behavior. There are no words for this moment or how powerful it was. It brought tears to both of us. My perspective of the day is seen thru the lens of that moment. Winning our daughter's heart is so worth it!<br />

<br />
We got our daughter's photo taken for her visa and passport to be ready when we return for the pickup trip. After that we went to the park for a bit, she had a favorite slide she wanted to show us. On the merry go round we began to work with asking nicely. (She's a little bossy ; ) ) <br />
<br />
We came back to the apartment so our attendant could go over some paperwork that would be notarized later on in the afternoon. We spent some time with her playing games, making necklaces and letting her braid Jen's hair.<br />
<br />
We left the apartment around 1:30 to grab a bite before heading to the notary and picking up the pictures taken that morning.<br />
<br />
Everything had gone really well. After picking up the photos, she had asked to go back to the apartment. The photo above was taken minutes before we arrived at the apartment. She had even asked for the ride on Aaron's shoulders. We are not sure what the trigger was, but as soon as we walked thru the door, the meltdown.<br />
<br />
It was a rough time, she said a lot. We're pretty sure the attendant left a few choice words out of the translation. The good news: She said it all, and we let her. We let it be ok for her to say it, and assured her that our love for her was unshakeable even though she said it. <br />
<br />
The end of the day she rebounded, and everything was back to normal. No, this is not the end of her struggles or ours, but it was a small breakthrough. <br />
<br />
For those of you praying for the three of us during this time, thank you. You have no idea how affective your prayers have been, both for our patience and her healing.<br />

<br />
We arrived at the orphanage at 9:30 am. The director had heard our daughter's take on her first day and now wanted to hear ours. We spoke for about 15 minutes, and then went on our way. <br />
<br />
Today we chose to explore some of the old parts of town. Unfortunately our daughter was not appropriately dressed, so she quickly became cold. It was not raining but as you can see from the picture above there was a heavy fog that kept everything damp in addition to the cold.<br />
<br />
We stepped inside the Ethnographic museum and spent about $10 to get warm. When we finished there we continued our way up the hill to ruins of an old fortress. The payoff being that you could look over the city. <br />
<br />
When we arrived at the top our daughter was finally free to run wild, hopping on boulders and chasing the stray cats. It was a great time of bonding as she would jump off of ruin walls into Aaron's arms.<br />
<br />
We grabbed lunch at a restaurant at the top and headed back to the apartment for the rest of the afternoon. We played with sticker books and numerous rounds of Candy Land. She tried on some of the clothes we had brought and loved them.<br />
<br />
She is definitely experiencing the full spectrum of emotions. It was evident throughout the day and even as we left to bring her back to the orphanage. We can't even imagine what is going on in her heart and mind.<br />
<br />
Here's some of our pics from the day:<br />

It would be up to the director to determine the schedule for our week with our little girl. And of course, we were nervous about meeting her, it's amazing how intimidating a 9 year old can be!<br />
<br />
We arrived at the orphanage a few minutes early, and waited in the courtyard for the director to arrive. We looked up and our eyes met as she was walking across the courtyard by an orphanage worker. Immediately, she bashfully lowered her head as she was escorted to us. But we couldn't miss the smirk. She was excited too.<br />
<br />
She shook our hands for an introduction, but when Jen reached out for a hug, she responded as if she had been waiting a month to hold her new Mama. We found out later on that she had her week of outfits all planned out for us! <br />
<br />
We went inside to meet with the director and had an opportunity to ask the director and workers lots of questions. Then the director told us we could take her out of the orphanage everyday this week, from 9:30 - 5:30, and that after this week we could set up weekly skype calls!<br />
<br />
This does not happen often.<br />
<br />
We took her back to our apartment, and spent the afternoon playing together. <br />
<br />
Our prayer before our referral, was that God would ready her heart for us, and our hearts for her. We don't know how else to explain it except to say that He's done it.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01050232666135871197noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8585424592792901796.post-35223949439739385132019-01-19T10:54:00.002-08:002019-01-19T10:54:35.742-08:00Our Referral!!This time around, <u><i><b>EVERYTHING</b></i></u> has been different in our adoption journey.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For the first year, all seemed well as we ran through all the paperwork and fundraising in pursuit of a little girl in Peru. The funding all came in before we were even ready to submit our application to Peru. It all seemed to be in place as we waited. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Then we were denied,, Then our appeal was denied. Then our final appeal again denied.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Heartbroken and confused, we had only a few days to select another country. So we went back to what we were familiar with, . . Bulgaria. Again we waited. For 1 1/2 years, nothing happened. The only thing to report was updates on paperwork and more fees.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Late last year, we thought we had an opportunity with a little girl in Lithuania. So we frantically ran around to have all our paperwork switched over and paid more fees only to once again have her slip thru our fingers. So we continued to wait on Bulgaria.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
December 20th, after 3 1/2 years of waiting, we got our referral! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This season has been one of the most challenging times we've faced as a family, both emotionally and spiritually. We've had to continually battle to keep our hearts from becoming calloused. We've had to fight for faith when nothing was happening. We still don't know what to think of any of it, and really don't have any good answers as to why. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
What we do know, is that sharing the Father's heart for the fatherless, and seeing Him bring healing to this little girl thru our family is worth every heartache, every unanswered question, every prayer offered in weakness.<br />
<br />
Below are some pics of the city where she is from. We will be staying there for five days visiting with our daughter. Unfortunately this will only be a trip to meet her. We will return in 4-6 months to bring her home.<br />

<span style="color: white;">We arrived in Bari, Italy at 8 am Saturday morning. By the time we got through customs(2 hours!), we barely had enough time to get to the train station for our 4 hour ride to Rome. We arrived in Roma Termini again and had to buy tickets for another train to our apartment. We then had a few minute walk with all our luggage. We were quite the site, walking thru the streets of Rome.</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: white;">We found a grocery store to buy breakfast and snacks. We found a little pizza place that sold an equivalent to slouvaki. Yummy!!! We ate dinner in the apartment and went to bed.</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: white;">We were up early and after a quick breakfast, caught a tram to the center of Rome. From there we walked everywhere. We only had a day, so we decided not to take any tours or go inside any monuments. We only stopped for a quick lunch at a restaurant, where we ordered a true Italian pizza.</span><br />

<span style="color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: white;">We knew that Scanderbeg, Albania's national hero, had spent some time in Rome, so we were so excited when we finally found Scanderbeg Piazza on our map. We navigated our way, using our tiny map in order to see it in person. The building where he stayed is still there.</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: white;">We were in the city until about 7 pm and then headed back to our apartment. We stopped only to pick up a little dinner of slouvaki once again. We ate it quickly and repacked so we could be ready to be up and out of our apartment around 3:30 am to catch our 8 am flight out of Rome. What a day!!!</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: white;">Amazingly, it was actually cheaper to take the time travelling thru Italy, spending a day in Rome on our return trip, than it would have been for us to have flown directly into Tirana, Albania. We feel so incredibly spoiled that our family was able to visit both of these amazing places.</span><br />

(Easy to say, but how do you tie monster trucks to a teaching from scripture?)</span><br />

He then showed that the monster truck needs each part in order to go! (We were kind of a little proud!)</span><br />

Many of these boys were holding a hammer for the first time ever. The boys ages ranged from 5-16.</span><br />

<span style="color: white;">There were so many boys that even the girls had to lend a helping hand. However, God had provided just enough that even Ellie and Reni got to make one. </span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white;">The toy trucks occupied the boys for the rest of the day. They were a huge hit!</span><br />

<span style="color: white;">I had told God years ago, that if He was calling us to Albania, I would be willing to go and even sweep floors for Him there. So, of course, when Jen saw me here she was quick to remind me of how God had answered my prayer! God has a sense of humor. </span><br />

It was a privilege to be able to encourage our brothers and sisters in <strong><em><u>VLA</u></em></strong>-shaj.

<span style="color: white;">Before we left the service the body prayed a blessing on us. It was hard to leave, even the kids said we weren't there quite long enough. The people of Vlashaj are in our hearts and we cannot wait for the opportunity to return.</span><br />

<span style="color: white;">Our second work day. Aaron and Nathan finished the second half of the gate at the center. Meanwhile, Jen and the kids finished assembling the metal shelving and organizing the storage underneath the house. </span><br />

<span style="color: white;">While Aaron and Nathan finished the top of the gate (too high for the kiddos) Tobin and Andrew resumed their week-long nerf gun fire fight with Reni. </span><br />

<span style="color: white;">The afternoon provided an opportunity for one more house visit. Here we are with the Koni family. This family was the first in the village to believe in Christ. Their daughter Eda is very fluent in English and was extremely helpful in translating for us especially while we were hanging out with the youth in the village. We were able to spend a lot of time with Eda throughout our time in Albania. We really enjoyed her fun, loving personality and her commitment to the ministry there in her village.</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="color: white;">During our visit we were able to encourage one another with stories of all that God had done in our lives. Even the kids shared testimonies of seeing God's healing power. </span><br />

<span style="color: white;">Today was a busy day. First we had the opportunity to visit an orphanage. We brought a foam turtle craft for each of the kids to make. There were about 10 kids around preschool age. Then we spent a little time playing games with them like "Duck,Duck, Chicken" (Cydil did not know the Albanian word for "Goose"). What a joy to see our kids helping these little ones with making a craft. The orphanage children were so at ease with our kids. Our kids started picking them up, giving them piggy back rides and teaching them to summersault. The smiles on both our kids and the orphanage kids were so amazing to see. We are so thankful for the opportunity. (Sorry, we cannot post any pictures of our time there.)</span></div>

<span style="color: white;">Afterwards we met with some other missionaries in Elbasan. We met at a fortress for cappuccinos and sodas. </span><br />
<span style="color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="color: white;">Here in Elbasan is another section of the Rruga Egnatia. It was so crazy to think that we were walking on the same road as Paul and other missionaries in the Bible.</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="color: white;">For lunch one of the missionary friends, Julie, brought us to eat slouvaki with the Waggoners. It's kind of like eating a gyro stuffed with shredded meat, lettuce, tomato, and special yummy sauce. They stuff French fries in it as well. You can see the pictures of Rachel and Andrew eating them. Side note: We were able to find a similar food the day we spent in Rome and we all were so excited.</span><br />

<span style="color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="color: white;">Soon after lunch we drove to another fortress called Petrella. This is the fortress that Scanderbeg's sister was in charge of. Most of the castles/fortresses are rented by restaurants, so they do not cost anything to visit. We just bought cappuccinos for the adults and hot chocolates for the kids as a thank you. Here is a picture of the hot chocolate we wrote about earlier, nice and thick and delicious!</span><br />

<span style="color: white;">We enjoyed time with the Waggoners seeing the beautiful mountains of Albania. This is such a beautiful country!!!</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"></span><br />
<span style="color: white;">We drove home and immediately Cydil and Jen got things ready for an evening bible study with the ladies of the village. Jen spoke on how God delivered her from so much anger and how spending time in God's Word is essential for growth in the life of every believer. The ladies were surprised, but encouraged to know that we all deal with the same things despite where we are from. As Jen finished our interpreter signaled for Jen to continue. The ladies wanted more encouragement, so she began to tell the story about our adoption of Andrew and his healing of hydrocephalus. It was a wonderful time of fellowship!</span><br />

<span style="color: white;">We took the day to do some sight seeing and learn more of Albania's history. We drove to the mountain city of Kruje, which was an amazing ride of switch backs going up into the city. The Waggoners brought us to an Ottoman style house at the top of the mountain. It was a "living history" type museum. This was especialy perfect for our kids. They love exploring "olden day" houses.</span></div>

We were able to share with her how Andrew was healed from hydrocephaly. She gave us an Albanian soccer ball as a gift.</span></div>

<span style="color: white;">The 2nd visit was full of laughter. We shared stories from our lives and how we met our spouses. The women were particularly impressed with Jen for having birthed 4 kids naturally and especially for having Tobin at home. We had the opportunity to pray a blessing over both families. </span></div>

<span style="color: white;">preparing for the young ladies night at the center. Our family brought treasure boxes, as well as plenty of gems and sequins for each of the young ladies to decorate. Inside each box we had printed off the lost coin scripture in the Albanian language. </span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white;">Our daughters prepared a devotional, and between the three Rachel was nominated to share on the parable of the lost coin. She spoke on how precious we are to God, and how He searched us out as well. We didn't realize until that evening, but some adult women in the village decided to come as well. Rachel didn't flinch, and shared with confidence all that God laid on their hearts. </span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white;">Two women from the village are hairdressers, so the young women put on makeup and had their hair done as well. Afterwards Cydil gave each one their own photo shoot. The young ladies in the village loved their special evening and even lingered for quite some time after.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We hiked out to Cape Rodonit, waking along a ridge with the Adriatic Sea on either side of us. The trail brought us to the remains of a castle believed to hide Albania's national hero, George Castrioti Scanderbeg, before escaping to Italy. At the same location there is a chapel called St. Anthony's church.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The hike brought us through the remains of a communist- era military base. We were able to explore some of the bunkers which were connected in a maze of underground tunnels. There were also some larger bunkers that evidently housed some type of artillery. Operating instructions were still on the wall!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Inside the chapel, the walls had been covered with frescoes. However, in the cultural revolution of 1967, looters destroyed most of them. It is thought that those of them that were left were done so in part because of the Scanderbeg crest found on the wall behind the altar.</span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: white;">This morning was Kid's Club. We were there during worship. They sang one song in English - "Our God is an Awesome God". It was amazing to hear and really special to us. We watched while they listened to the lesson and then as they learned to draw an elephant and a giraffe. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: white;">We really had a chance to get to know many of these kids and their personalities in just a short time. Despite a bit of a language barrier at times, we were able to communicate some with hand gestures and a few Albanian words. A few of the older ones knew some English and would help translate too. We really do love the kids in Vlashaj!</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: white;">The majority of the kids that come to the center are boys because many of the girls are at home helping to cook and clean while mom and dad are out working. </span></div>

<span style="color: white;">Later on in the afternoon we had the privilege to go to the next village over to the Hope for the World Center. This is a home for teenagers who need a home or have aged out of the orphanage. We had the opportunity to talk with the kids there, but not everyone spoke English, so it was a little bit difficult. A group with World Race was staying in Albania for the month, so we met some of them who were staying there at the center that week. We had a cookout and then went back to the village. <a href="http://hopefortheworldalbania.com/index.htm">Hope for the World</a> also runs several orphanages in Albania and does much more for the country, </span></div>

<span style="color: white;">Later that evening we had a chance to just talk with the Waggoners and let the our kids play. </span>Aaron and Jennifer Santorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15776685574118467147noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8585424592792901796.post-55403805031559579512015-06-03T19:05:00.000-07:002015-07-11T18:07:13.474-07:00Albania Day 2 : Work Projects and Abandoned Babies<span style="color: white;">We started early with a language lesson after breakfast and then began working on two projects. First the storage area underneath the center needed to be organized, Then we would need to paint the center's front gates.</span><br />
<div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;">

<span style="color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white;">We started with the storage area. In order to create a space for the shelving we first needed to pull everything out from the storage area. We would have more time later in our visit to build the shelves.With that finished, we started on the gate.</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span>

Then we began the tedious job of painting every nook and cranny of the gate, all the while trying not to spill any of the black paint on the white concrete walls. Our children never complained but worked diligently to make sure the job was done right. We finished one of the gates that morning and would paint the second one later on during our visit.</span><br />

Jen and our girls along with Cydil and her daughter, rode the bus to go to the maternity hospital. We did arrive a little early, so we stopped by a coffee shop and Cydil introduced us to Albanian hot chocolate (think thick like pudding, hot and yummy - dessert in a coffee cup that you eat with a spoon!). </span><br />

We were greeted by Ms. Claudia, who started OSAAB (the Organization for the Support of Albania's Abandoned Babies) in 1996. She and Mira, the social worker at the hospital, explained more about what they had done over the years, as well as showed us before and after pictures of the nursery. They told us the rules for going in and holding the babies and then immediately brought us in to love on the babies. Two of the babies had just been born the week before.</span><br />

It was hard to know they were abandoned, and Jen really had to hold back the tears. The girls loved holding them and rocking them. We thanked Claudia and Mira for allowing us the privilege to love on the babies.</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white;">We found out before going that this is where the Waggoner's daughter was born and spent her first several weeks of life before going to an orphanage. This was also the first time Cydil brought her to visit, so it was extra special for us to be a part of such a sweet moment.</span><br />

Everyone worshiped together at the beginning and then the younger kids went and did a lesson while the rest of us stayed for the message. </span><br />

<span style="color: white;">After church the Waggoners invited the Pastor and his wife to come and spend some time with us. It was a real treat to close out the evening listening to them recount their testimonies of how they first even heard the name Jesus. It was very encouraging!!!</span><br />

We never even felt it moving, but woke up pretty well rested. We arrived in Durres at 8 a.m. and after going through customs the Waggoners were there to greet us with breakfast, which was so thoughtful of them. We were so glad to see them. It was wonderful to see familiar friends who knew the area and know the language, and to know it was no longer up to us to find our way.</span><br />

<span style="color: white;">After we left the dock, we visited the Durres amphitheater. Outside was the "Rruga Egnatia." This was the Roman Road that ran from the Adriatic Sea through northern Greece and up through Turkey. It was most likely the road Paul used to reach Phillippi, Galatia and Thessalonica. The most preserved parts of the road today are in Albania. </span><br />

Originally the amphitheater was able to hold 15,000-20,000 people. Debris from a tsunami buried the ancient site for centuries until it was discovered in the 1960s. The amphitheater was used for entertainment, especially the gladiator games. Christians were put to death here as well. On the right is the area believed to house lions. Nathan shared the scripture in Hebrews 11 about those who had died before us, having not seen what was promised, but now we are the fruit of their sacrifice. He then took a moment to pray for our time in Albania. </span><br />

The village kids arrive every day at 4 to play basketball, 4 square and volleyball. When the kids arrived our kids did not hesitate, they jumped right into the thick of things. The language barrier was never an issue. Hand gestures and charades worked just fine. The village kids were excited to have a new 4 square ball that we brought over for them. The Waggoners let us know before we came that they had just recently taught the kids how to play, but that they only had a plain plastic ball to play with.</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white;">They played until 5:30 and then we hiked to the water tower that overlooks the village. Along the way we inadvertently gathered kids from the village. Once there we prayed over the village and for our time there. </span><br />

<span style="color: white;">We got back just in time for dinner at 7. We then spent time with both of our families debriefing. Having only been there for half a day, we already felt at home and part of the family. We were so excited to finally be in this country we had longed to see for so many years. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">We arrived home safely on Monday, May 4th,
and spent the first weeks getting our bearings and waiting on the phone company
to repair our internet connection. During this time it's been great to
begin to process the trip and reflect on all that God did with the time there.</span><span style="font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Thank you all for
your prayers and support. The grace of God was evident throughout our journey.</span><span style="font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">We were up at 5 a.m.
with our suburban already packed and drove to Atlanta. We encountered a
little rush hour traffic, but still made it by 9:15 for a 12 pm flight. </span><span style="font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br />
We started off at the wrong terminal. International destination, but a domestic
stop in D.C. meant we had to get over to the domestic terminal.
Fortunately we had a 2.5 hr wait.</span><span style="font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">We landed in Rome at 8am (2 am EST). Quite an
experience for the kids. We caught a 50 minute bus to Roma Termini train
station where we had a several hours to kill. At the station there are storage
rooms where we were able to pay for our luggage to be kept so we wouldn't have
to carry it all thru the streets. Unfortunately we forgot we weren't in
America. The phrase "Can I help you?" means that there is a fee
attached.</span><span style="font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Naples during our layover. We hadn't seen him since 2009 when he interned
at our church. He treated us to pizza and we were able to spend time getting
caught up. We were pretty exhausted, but it was good to see a familiar face. He
helped us figure out what platform our train would arrive at and he was off to
catch his train back home. He took an hour train ride just to see us for such a
short time, but it meant the world to us.</span> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

only to discover the underground door to the platform was closed. So we ran with 7 kids and ALL our luggage in tow to the
other side of the train station and just made it. It was a 4 hr train ride and
we were all able to sleep on and off. It was good to finally be able to
relax. </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">We arrived in Bari at 6:45 p.m. We could not find anyone
who spoke English or any signs to direct us. We knew we had to take a bus
to the ferry but could not tell which one. As we were trying to buy
tickets the man behind the counter could only say "20" and was trying
to communicate something more with hand signals. A young man who did speak
English walked up out of nowhere and explained we needed bus "20 /"
He then brought us to the bus stop, showed us what time the bus would be coming
and then walked off. While we were waiting, another young man asked what bus we
were waiting for and began keeping watch for us. When it pulled into the
stop, he called us over to it and then walked away.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">Thankfully we had researched and knew we needed to go to
the ticket booth separate from where the ferry docks. On the bus, other
Albanians were signaling to us where our stop was. We walked to the
ticket counter and one of the Albanians from the bus introduced himself and his
father in English.</span><br />

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="color: white;">Inside we were told that the office was
closed and our new Albanian friends explained that we would have to catch a bus
and travel 2 km down the road to purchase ferry tickets. They helped us get to
the alternate ticket booth, got us thru customs and made sure we got on the
right van for our ferry. If we had not met them we would not have made our
ferry in time. We know this was totally God's provision. Running from one spot
to the next Aaron was telling the kids "This is what happens when we
totally place ourselves in God's hands!" We are so thankful they got to
witness all of this first hand.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<br />
<br />
We have seen God be so faithful in providing for every part of this adventure. From providing luggage, to drastically discounted plane tickets, to a steady stream of financial support. <br />
<br />
We will be leading a craft activity for some of the boys in the village of Vlashaj. We asked our local Lowe's if they would be willing to donate some of the DIY toys they build once -a-month on Saturdays for our trip. They were eager to, and even threw in a few extra (which we found out later were exactly how many we would need!). The package they gave us even included some certificates of completion and badges too.<br />
<br />
Jen was having a difficult time finding small wooden boxes for a craft activity within our budget for the girls. She just happened to walk into a craft store to find just the right item, for just the right price, and just the right number of them. <br />
<br />
We have felt such a grace of confidence in God's provision. Aaron commented how great it would be if we had all the travel expenses covered and were able to spend the remaining weeks before our trip focusing on prayer rather than on trying to finish raising funds. <br />
<br />
Well, HE did it!<br />

The Waggoners have shared with us a Shutterfly book of all the families in Vlashaj. This is a great help. As a family we are giving ourselves to praying nightly for these families and their village by name. We will all have opportunities to share and interact with the people of Vlashaj and more than anything we desire that the light and life of Jesus shine through every part of us. <br />
<br />
We want to invite you to join with us in prayer. In the midst of all of life's normal busy-ness, we have a lot of work to do getting ready for our travels. Aaron is self employed so he is busy making sure he is caught up at work and is able to put aside what we need while we're gone.<br />
<br />
Please pray that our travels would go smoothly.<br />
<br />
Most importantly please pray that our time in Vlashaj would be effective and that hearts would be soft and receptive to all that the Spirit has to say through us.</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">7 weeks to go!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This past week we received another $300 in donations which brings our total amount needed down to $3,338.We are continuing to trust God for the remainder as we have seen provision come in steadily since we began this journey. Thank you all for your prayers and support. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We have been Skyping with the Waggoners regularly as we near our travel dates. They have been so helpful and thorough in preparing us for spending time in a new culture. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Our minds are beginning to shift towards preparations that we will need to make for our time away. Supplies, clothing, things that need to be done around the house, etc. 7 weeks is going to fly! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">For our final fund raiser we are doing a number block system / raffle hybrid. We have a grid of squares numbered 1-80. We need only 80 squares filled with a corresponding donation to meet the remaining amount. (For example: Square #42 =Donation of $42)</span><br />

Whenever we looked online ticket prices were averaging around $1,100 each. Due to scheduling changes our trip was pushed back to late April and now the prices were up to $1,350. While we were initially discouraged, we continued to pray believing that God would provide. Late one evening, just as we were headed to bed, Jen decided to check ticket prices. She found tickets for $750 each!!!<br />
<br />
After seeking counsel, we decided to buy the tickets in faith. By that evening we received $1,200 in donations, confirming that God was indeed in the process of providing all that we would need. These tickets will land us in Rome, but with a train ride through Italy, and a ferry across the Adriatic Sea, we still come in under the $900/person deal we were hoping for.<br />
<br />

Currently we are down to $3,710 needed in support to be raised. We love seasons like this because they unite our family in prayer, and allows our kids to see first hand the fruit of even the smallest amount of faith.<br />
<br />
We have learned that our time in Albania will include a visit to an orphanage where we, along with our kids, will have an opportunity to work with 3-5 year old children. Jen and I will have a chance to share in the men's and women's bible studies. Our children will be stretched also, as they will be given opportunities to share their testimonies. As a family we will be able to help with maintenance at the ministry center as well as to meet the families in the village of Vlashaj.<br />
<br />
Our next fundraiser will include prizes.

Our kids baked, decorated, set up, hustled right along side us. We were very encouraged when volunteers at the festival heard what we were raising money for and took time to pray over our family at the start of the day!<br />
<br />
Our youngest met up with one of his friends. They grabbed a tray of cookies and began to walk the crowded street selling to all who fell sway to their charm (even other vendors selling food!) They sold all the cookies and then began to tackle the brownies. <br />
<br />
When we held the bake sale for our adoption in 2008 we were able to bring in about $500. I was hoping maybe to do about $750. Jen prayed asking God for $1,000. He answered and we left the festival having made <b><u>over</u></b> $1,000.<br />
<br />
We have continued to sell items off the facebook page throughout Thanksgiving and Christmas and we have received a few donations bringing our total to $3,430. We now have travel dates of April 21 - May 4 and are trusting God for the remainder of the funds.<br />
<br />

While in Albania we will be helping to build a perimeter wall around a future building site for the ministry. Our kids will be helping to lead a craft for the children that visit the center. Jen and I will have different opportunities to speak and teach at the men's and women's bible studies.<br />
<br />
Please continue to pray us as we prepare to travel and make all the necessary arrangements for our time in Albania. Please pray that the Holy Spirit would empower us to share His light and love of Jesus with everyone we meet in this journey. Please pray also that the remainder of money that we need would come in.<br />

We are just now being able to move forward.<br />
<br />
Since we last posted we have received passports for all the kids. The remaining costs will primarily be plane tickets. <br />
<br />
We received a tremendous amount of support as we first launched, and continue to do so. Family members in other parts of the country have taken up our cause to help raise funds for our travel. Some have even bought our luggage. This is encouraging beyond words, in that while we have been unable to do anything here temporarily, God has been providing through others!<br />

Our next big event will be at our town's harvest festival this month. We will be selling baked goods along with some of the other items we've listed online. Out of all the fundraisers we did during the adoption, this was our favorite (we're still recouping from the yard sales!). <br />

As new parents, we were clueless. Our highest goal could be summed up simply as "Try not to screw the kid up, . . .too badly".</div>

We were saved when we were challenged to parent with vision, to see our calling as parents as more than just trying to raise functional citizens in society. We were to know our children's hearts, their giftings and their callings. We were to train them in the way they should go.<br />
<br />
<div style="border-image: none;">
Our charge was not only to teach our children the values and lifestyle of the Kingdom of God, but to demonstrate and walk alongside them as they grew in understanding. Not just good citizens in society, but citizens of His kingdom, walking in power, freedom, and the fullness of His love.</div>
<br />
Four years ago we adopted our youngest son from Bulgaria. When our journey was finished we realized that one of our strengths during that time was that my wife and I never saw the adoption as "our thing", but rather a family journey. Our children prayed, labored, and contended for faith right alongside us. Ever since then, we've chosen to see everything we do as a "family thing".<br />

Originally we had plans to adopt from Albania. We researched the country and fell in love with it. During that time we met the wonderful Waggoner family (<a href="http://waggoner.blogspot.com/">Waggoner News and World Report</a>)that was in the process of adopting their second child from Albania.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately the adoption agency we were with closed its Albania program. Our hearts were broken, but we were led to Bulgaria where we met our youngest son. Throughout the process we continued to stay in contact with the Waggoner family and have continued to carry a burden for the people of Albania ever since. <br />
<br />
Since that time the Waggoners have moved to Albania as full time missionaries, and we have continued to dream of doing a short term mission trip to Albania as a <strong>family</strong>. Family was God's idea. He has chosen to reveal Himself to us as Father. It is only fitting that He would be made known in and through family.<br />

<br />
Early this year, the Waggoners invited us as a family to come for a two week period this fall to serve along side them in the village of Vlashaj, Albania. We've spent the year debating whether it was the right time or not, but it seems that God has lined things up for us. Its a shorter prep time than what we would have chosen, but God does His best work in impossible circumstances.<br />
<br />
While our exact itinerary has yet to be determined, our children will not just be tagging along. They're part of the team and there will be plenty of work for them to do. The Waggoners tell us that the ministry yard in Vlashaj is visited by Albanian children every morning, many of whom speak English. Our children will have the opportunity to interact with them daily.<br />

We've wrapped up our last blog as we feel we've transitioned into a new stage of life with our son. This blog will go on indefinitely and primarily be a source of family updates and such, but for the time being, we will kick it off with updates and prayer requests concerning our Albanian adventure.<br />
<br />
We'd love for you to join us here for the journey. We will desperately need your prayers. In the coming days we'll be providing links to fund raiser sites. If you would consider supporting us on this adventure it would mean so much to us!<br />
