God's timing

On our way home from visiting our mamas at the knitting shop we got a call from the children's department saying that there was an abandoned boy and we welcomed baby boy Solomon to haven of Hope!
He is probably 1 1/2 years old, is able to walk, speaks clear Kiswahili, and is very happy to be in a home, clean and dry!

He came to us in a VERY stylish knit orange outfit. nice.

God has been really good in showing us His timing and provision over these kids, the home and ministry. Today we also met and began the fostering of our precious boy Eli. As we are loosing these babies we began to worry what it would be to have so few babies in the home...but the day Hopey met her mother? God blessed us with baby Annabelle. the day we met Eli's parents? here comes Solomon...God gives, and takes away. as the season of caring and loving Eli comes to a close we begin a new season with Solomon.

and seeing Eli's parents confirms that God's plans for these kids are GOOD. They are from Nairobi, both police officers. His father has a great spirit, full of joy, just like his little boy. Eli has a dad to look up to, and follow in his footsteps.

this little boy is so special. Hilarious. Beautiful. Full of complete Joy. and has incredible potential.





I will so miss waking Eli in the morning, seeing his beautiful smile getting hugs and kisses from him. laughing at his funny antics and loving him with my whole heart.
