Heaven Called Grandma Hoppins Home

Dear Little Princess,

With just days before you are in OUR arms, Jesus called Grandma Hoppins home.

Her time on earth was finished. And, even though she was only 65 and incredibly healthy, she had done what she needed to do. We will miss her deary. Mommy made a special DVD to honor Grandma's life and will be working on a special memory of who your Grandma Hoppins was in a special scrapbook.

Grandma Hoppins went to be with Jesus on Saturday, June 26, 2010 at 8:12pm.

She would have loved to have known you. I asked her to send us ladybugs from time to time. I know she will.

Happy Baba Day!

I really believed with all my heart that we would be holding Gabriella in our arms today in China. We are not.

Instead, we are praying and believing that God is protecting her, her foster sister Monique, and her foster family from the horrendous floods in Guilin and other neighboring cities and countrysides.

Lord Jesus... you have shown Yourself faithful. You have blessed us with many miracles that let us know that You are ABSOLUTELY in this journey with us and You are watching over every detail. We trust that You will put a hedge of protection over our baby girl.
