We are family. We are home. Thanks for following our journey. This blog was created to keep up with Frankie’s journey to our home. Our lives still continue but now as a family of 5.

Have Mercy Kim…Those are breathtaking. Not only is your family beautiful, but God’s grace is so evident all over each one of you!
Hello
I hope that God blesses you and your whole family for opening your hearts to this precious child. I am a Haitian national and hearing stories like yours brings tears of joy to my eyes. One abandoned child is too many as far as I’m concerned.
