When I shared a donation wish list from JT's orphanage with friends from church, they decided to throw a donation shower for us. We were amazed at how much we received! Our friends and family donated enough items to fill a suitcase and two large tote boxes. As you can see, Paul tested the limits of a donated Samsonite, and so far it is standing up to the challenge. (Hopefully it won't explode in the cargo hold!) We are blessed to have so many generous people in our lives, and now children halfway across the world will be blessed by them as well! We want to say "THANK YOU!!!" to all who helped us out!
Stay in touch when you're away with Windows Live Messenger.
IM anytime you're online.

Very impressive. I hope for Paul's sake samsonite luggage is as durable as their commercials claim or he will be getting some strange looks at the airport.
Are all those meals for us to eat while you are gone? If so I plan on visiting Linda and the kids.
Have a safe and blessed trip. It is all terribly exciting.
Love,

You can have my coffee, but keep your paws off of my food, sister.
I specifically asked that our monetary donation be used for the purchase of Fun Dip and Big League Chew for the kids, neither of which I see in your suitcase. Hopefully you're still able to fix this egregious oversight prior to leaving the US.
Have fun traveling! We are all very excited to meet JD and hear about your adventures in Estonia.

Hey, Kids! Things are great here. By 10:00 yesterday morning, as I was checking out your flavored coffee supply in the freezer, Wendy, I found the frozen Reese's Pieces Cups, and don't be surprised if they are all gone when you get back. Paul, I also spotted the chilled Corona in the refrigerator, and as the saying goes, "It's noon somewhere." I love all these perks! (Just kidding). You won't let me sign up for any more of these gigs if I keep talking smart. I did have a startle last night after I went to bed, as it sounded like Darth Vader had entered my room. I soon discovered that you have a baby monitor in Judd's room and the other part in MY bedroom, hence the deep breathing (which is good, I guess.....as it meant he was sleeping soundly). All is running along smoothly here, so nothing to worry about, although I'm sure as the days pass they'll all experience a big void for their parents. In the meantime, we're all excited about you meeting Son #2 tomorrow! Love......MD
