So, Now What? When what we thought was "Happily Ever After" turns out to be the beginning.: Are you hearing what I am saying????

Are you hearing what I am saying????

"STOWT" Can you guess what this word is to Theo and Blessing? I'll give you a hint: You have it at breakfast. This is their word for toast. Now I need to let you know that they never had toast in Liberia. This is a new food and a new word to them. I say toast, they hear Stowt? Ain't life grand?

Why the new blog

On January 24th, 2011, I arrived home from Liberia, West Africa with my two beautiful children. Three years of prayer had been answered.
When my 17 month old was terrified of them and my 12 year old fell into tears in my arms the first day, because, "the house felt so different with them here," I realized this is not the end of the story. This is the first meeting. The rest has been back story. We still have the misunderstanding and character conflict before we reach our true "Happily Ever After."
I thought our adjustment might be helpful or at least amusing for people to read.
How often does it happen that when our prayers are answered, we ask ourselves the question, "So, now what do I do?"
Love to all,
Adrienne
