WE THANK GOD FOR GIVING US YOU!!!

Not flesh of my flesh,
nor bone of my bone,
but still miraculously my own ~
never forget - not for a minute ~
you weren't born under my heart
but in it!


We would like to introduce to you, Jacob Lain Jenkins.  Jacob was born in Khabarovsk, Russia.  We are so excited to welcome him to our family!

Today I kissed an angel
I knew it from the start
The first time my angel
Smiled at me
I gave away my heart
 
Today I kissed an angel
This angel child of mine
Though not of my creation
My child by Gods design
 
Today I kissed an angel
My heart is dancing wild
Our family, by a miracle
Blessed by our angel child
