Getting ready




Looks like Avery in the orange shirt.






We are gathering paperwork and submitting it to our Agency, as they are forwarding it on to the lawyers in Pittsburgh who will be adovating for our children's visas. It is still unclear how long this will take and when/how the children will be evacuated from Haiti.

Above are some photos from the orphanage. They are living outside for the most part in tents as the building is unsafe. We haven't received many updates since yesterday on whether or not they have been able to find water and more supplies.

Thank you to everyone who has been keeping our family and others in their thoughts and prayers. We all very much appreciate it and we are all hopeful that the children will be in the safety of their adoptive families within the next few days/week.

Tracy and Mike!
What a mixed blessing that the tragedy in Haiti may bring Avery home soon!
You are in our prayers for safe and uneventful travel that brings her home soon! I know you are probably running in a million different directions right now - I'll try calling in the next few days.
On a lighter note - enjoy shopping for a girl! There are tons of great sales right now :)
