the babies understand.

its crazy how different things feel around the house when babies come and go through adoption. i love seeing God's plan for each baby come out through meeting their families but it hurts when we look at empty highchairs or only get 4 bumbos out for "watching time" rather than 6.

we obviously realize what is going on when hope and eli left... and it is becoming more and more obvious that the older kids realize as well:

julia talking about how she wants hope and eli but knows they are with mama and baba.

miah today mentioning eli then asked:
"miah, where is eli?"
"with mama"
"with mama and juju??" (since he calls trena mama)
"no! with mama and baba eli!"

obviously...lizzie understands her fellow girl in the house of crazy boys is leaving...
these kids get it. and share the tears and the excitement we feel when one of their "siblings" goes to be with their families.
