Musings and thoughts as we work through the process of bringing our children home via international adoption.

We Love You, Ellie!
We just received word that our little Ellie Gordon passed away this morning after getting very ill. Ellie's adoptive parents went to Haiti with us in January and they met Ellie for the first time when we met Lexi and Nathan for the first time.
Ellie had a beautiful smile and the most hauntingly expressive eyes. It was such a blessing to be able to watch her open up with her new adoptive parents in the short week that we spent with them in Haiti.
My heart is breaking for Scott and Michelle.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
We love you, Ellie!

This makes me so sad and angry at the same time. We too have lost two children this year from our Orphanage that had families that they were matched to. Why is it such an obstacle to get these kids home?
Thank you!
