Trip to Haiti

We just returned from visiting our girls in Haiti. It was an incredible trip, and we had a great time getting to know them and hold them both. Leaving was painful...

The video below is photos of our trip.

(If this doesn't work, here is a link to view it in YouTube)



Please pray:

  • We learned on this trip that some have waited for 1.5 - 2 years to receive an abandonment decree to even start the process... please pray that the judge/mayor would do what is necessary SOON to allow us to start the adoption process of Christéla.
  • We still do not know if we are in IBESR with Aliyah... but either way, please pray that her process will go smoothly and quickly so she can come home soon - and if there is any way for her to be expedited because of her medical needs, that this would happen.
  • For the hearts of both our girls - that the Lord would protect them and prepare them to be a part of our family.
  • For our boys as they await their sisters.
  • For our hearts as we long to have our girls home with us.

It was nice to finally meet you. Your girls are precious. Hmmm, that wasn't very easy putting the kids on the van that night. That was my final goodbye. Kayla was out of there but Kaleb came back and gave me my first kiss and said bye bye and I barely held together to read those verses in devotions!!!

Karrs,
Your girls are beautiful! My heart aches for you, having to leave them. I will be praying for a miracle with paperwork to go thru quickly.
Love,
Jen for the Webers

Your photos are WONDERFUL! It looks like your girls really connected with you so well. And I know firsthand the heartbreak of leaving your baby, and waiting and waiting.....I am PRAYING for your requests. Hugs!!

Beautiful video, Tana. I am so sorry that adopting Christela is going to take longer than it should, when it already takes long enough as it is. They are both absolutely gorgeous and it looks like the girls knew you were their parents. I am glad you got to be with them and hopefully you can go back again soon...
