I was in states during Valentine’s day this year and the kids forgot to take their valentines and pass them out! So today they went & celebrated with the orphans!

It’s been almost a month since I’ve seen my babies! Jose & I left January 29th with Janeil to help him with some work on the St. Louis campus and within a week I was flying out for emergency gallbladder surgery. My momma has been the best nurse and has really taken care of me […]

I want to thank everyone for their gifts of love & support & encouragement! It’s been a rough 2013 – which I’m still claiming for Jesus! The church has been rocking it out! We have been using a small generator and have a band playing every Sunday with all our instruments! The pews are full. […]

We started the party off with applying make-up & getting their nails done! Then we sprayed pink & purple hair color! The girls loved primping! We […]

When Jose & I got married in Haiti in 2001 – instead of wedding gifts –  we asked for our friends & family  to make tax-deductible donations to our housing fund. We lived with my parents while I was finishing nursing school just so we could put every penny we had towards that house. Throughout […]

It’s 3:30am. With an American Airlines’ red blanket in my hand, I laid in exhaustion on the airport floor. My arms were sore & throbbing from dragging all the luggage from gate to gate.  My head was pounding. I was completely worn out. The children had finally settled down. I grabbed my eye mask to […]
