Proud to be an American

Ty got his first letter in the mail last week. Unless he wins the Publisher's House sweepstakes it will be his most important piece of mail ever. It is his US Citizenship Certificate.

Included in the envelope was a letter from none other than George W. Bush. I'm sure it was dictated and typed especially for him. None the less, this was a great day for Ty(and me)

Me, because unless you've been an immigrant or adopted you can't belive the amount of paper-work that goes into getting this document.

We are truly blessed to live in such a wonderful, FREE country. I thank God for it now almost everyday. Just to know that our two babies may have never heard the name of Jesus or had a chance to worship him freely, sends chills up my spine.
We are blessed!!!

Amen Sheri, I was thinking the same thing. I do wish I could have adopted while this president was in office though so he could welcome my little one here.
