Dear Tommi~
I am writing to let you know that God has performed yet another Miracle in my life and in the lives of my family. Remember the little Russian boy I was telling you about a few letters back, and that Bill and myself were in the process of adopting him? Well, the other day, my adoption specialist called to tell us that the adoption has been APPROVED, and that we should be getting little Vlademir Aleksander in a few months! God is so good!! :)
We will now have *fifty-four* Miracle Children in our family! I didn't think we would get approved because we have more than enough children to raise now as it is, but God saw fit to add little Vlady to our family! I am so happy and overcome with joy I can hardly stand it, and I have been crying more the past few days than I have in quite a long while; but unlike past times, these tears are happy, and I am sitting here, thanking God for His Goodness, Mercy, and Grace in my life!
I will tell the news to my pastor on Sunday when we go to church; oh, I know that there will be plenty of shoutin' and raisin' the rafters in celebrtion! Oh, what a spectacular early Mother's Day gift! This is going to be one Mother's Day I will never forget!!
Looks like another book may be in the offing soon; I will have to write about the Miracles that God has been continually performing in my life, and in the lives of my husband and children! I don't know what I may have done to deserve all these blessings; but I hope that they don't stop!! :) I am enjoying being surprised like this--good surprises! :)
Well, I will be writing you again soon to answer your letter, so be on the lookout for it! I am e-mailing everyone now to let them know about little Vlademir and God's goodness in our lives! Take care, Tommi, and God bless you as much as He has been blessing me as of late! Love you!
~As always, your friend in Tennessee, Louisiana Mayrah (soon to be the Mamma of *54* Miracles!!). :D
