Update to our stressful week

Thank you so much for all the prayers and love poured out on us this week. I wanted to take a few minutes to update you. First, the lawyer meeting last week went well and we are encouraged by our coure of action. We are meeting with another lawyer this morning to get a better idea of the family law side of things and then it is praying time as we decide to go forward. Second, Asjiah did go to a new foster home on Wed. afternoon. To make a very long story short, we realized she had some needs that we could no longer help with and she needed to move to a situation that serve those needs better. We still have her sister and I have to say it has been a much less stressful couple of days. We love her very much, so it was bittersweet to let her go, but we are trusting God to take good care of her. Plus, Ayana will still see her once a week at the visits with their Mom. And finally, I cannot remember who knows and doesn't know, but Nathan's Grandmother, Valerie lives here in Mesa. She was expericening some health issues and had major open heart surgey on Tues. morning. There are some pretty serious complications and she is not waking up or responding now 3 days post-op. They are speculating all kinds of things including the possiblilty of some brain damage due to being on bypass for so many hours. Please pray for her sister Tess who is the only "family" here at the moment. Valerie loves God and we pray that He would heal her, and at the very least help the doctors find some answers.

Blessings to all of you...happy Firday!
