Dear Claire,
"Aunt" Erin sent some encouraging words today.

"God's gifts are never late; they are always on time and far beyond what we could ever imagine."

Dear Claire,
At 10:30, Daddy and I set forth to Cleveland. Our appointment was at 2:00, we had plenty of time....2 hours later, we were a little lost from the trail. We were starting to worry that we would miss our appointment. We looked around and we saw a sign for Route 51, which took us right where we needed to go. Route 51 was nowhere on the map. We decided that God had made that road right then and we made it to Cleveland just in time. While looking for a parking spot, we looked up and saw a sign....it said "St. Claire".

God Loves You!

Dear Claire,
Grandma Zerbe gave me the names of 2 families that brought their babies home from Guatemala. Maybe we will meet them someday. Aunt Tara sat beside a special family on her plane ride home. They had 2 sons they brought home 5 years ago. They told Aunt Tara how much they loved those boys. God is bringing people into our lives who are helping us to understand how love is created in different ways.

Dear Claire,
Darlene called today and told us that our homestudy was done. This means that we are closer and closer to coming and getting you.
