quick update

God continues to be good and care for our kids! I just wanted to give you a quick update and will fill in more details later. We were able to have an interview with CNN news here on Sat. night at 6:00!! Talk about prime time...........It was GREAT coverage for GLA!!
I haven't found a link to it, so we'll post that once we find it..............but we were able to be in on a 3 way call and skype and talk with CNN, Dixie and the kids! But it was just such great coverage for GLA because Dixie was able to let the news know just how dire the situations are. She talked about rationalizing out food and water and having enough until Monday. Did you hear that......2 more days. And then not only was she able to talk about the need, but the CNN news guy had the Ambassador of Haiti with him and the Ambassador was able to comment on adoption statuses. It sounds like passports can be issue through the US.........whatever all that means...........but it has to be good news that they are wanting more kids to be able to go home!!!!

So as I'm ending the day and checking out GLA's web sight..............Dixie posted that some people who heard the CNN broadcast in Haiti that had water----were willing to share with GLA!!!! Isn't that awesome. So we know they have water for a short period again. i"m just so thankful the God is continuing to provide for them.
There isn't any definite direction with how to proceed with adoptions, but it seems to be getting very close to decisions and possibly any actions. When the orphanage director starts to talk about 'fearing for the kids'.........i hope someone is listening.

It makes me sad to hear all these words as a parent...........but yet so glad that the facts can be out there and get the message out that things need to be expedited.

KEEP PRAYING!!!!!!!!!
