Someone I know posted a link to this article on Facebook. I took a look at it, and it was really interesting. Take a look, it's a thought provoking read.
As an atheist, I truly believe Africa needs God

The deed is done
Ok, I know, it's been a very long time without a post. But I finally have something to share.
Alana has been doing very well. We love having her around, what a blessing. Laura and Erik love having Alana around as well, and are learning to be responsible older siblings. But that's not the news.
Ok, here's the news. I am no longer a productive member of society. Yup, this here guy is only for entertainment purposes. I should clarify a bit, add a "re" in front of the "pro" part. Now you might get the joke. Yes, I was the man, took it like a man, and now I'm just an "it", a plaything, a toy. Ahhhhh, the things we do.....
It's going well, the procedure was quick and painless. The recovery has gone surpisingly well. Only one bad stretch that has caused some pain (I was getting out of the minivan... just stepped out and everything got tight... yeah) but other than that it's just been discomfort. But hey, without discomfort, how would we know that we're alive right?

Some More Pics
Here are some more pics of our precious little girl. Here she is right after getting weighed and half way through putting on clothes for the first time. She got the arms on right, but was having trouble with the legs so the nurse helped out a bit.
Here she is cuddling with Mommy.

Another pic with Mommy.
She seemed to like sticking out her tongue.
Check out the lovely locks! Very blong hair, and very long.
I hope you have enjoyed these pics!
