This afternoon we joined a big group of people at the airport to welcome the Bonner family. They are HOME, and their family is finally TOGETHER! Their son “G” is one of our son’s Hannah’s Hope buddies, and we were able to get to know him and play with him a lot when we were in Ethiopia a few weeks ago. We just LOVE him, and it was SOOOOO good to see him again . . . this time here in Nashville! I had to fight tears the whole time we were there because seeing him made me miss our little guy terribly. Two weeks from today we’ll be at the airport again – this time on the other side of things – bringing our boy home. I absolutely cannot wait . . . it’s making me crazy! Here’s the Stavnes family. They live in the area and just got home with their son a few weeks ago. He is adorable!
Of course Lucy Lane and her crew were there!
Riley & Cole were excited because I checked them out of school a little early to join in the fun. I can’t get a “normal” picture of Cole for anything right now – he is just plain crazy! I think it was good for them to get a little taste of what they’ll experience in a couple of weeks so they’ll know what to expect.
And here they come!!!!! Vanessa was overcome with emotion, and who can blame her??? Their journey has been a long one filled with many unexpected twists and turns.
There was a big crowd there to celebrate with them (including the Peters family) . . .
Lots of love and attention . . .
Here he is playing peek-a-boo with Brad. He remembered him from our time at Hannah’s Hope (who can forget that big goatee?!?!) Welcome home little guy! We love you so much & can’t wait for a playdate really soon!!!
