Happy Birthday Josslyn and Brielle...

Today the twins turned 4. Oh how I wish we could have been there to celebrate their birthday, but we did send them a box of goodies and the two dresses I smocked for them. We haven't had much contact with them since they left our care in April, so to say that we miss them is an understatement! I am hoping their mom will take pictures of them wearing their dresses and send them to me. I have only pictures of them on the day they left so here we go...

Jossy, Jordy and Briell-y (these are my lovie names for them)...

Just tooooo cute and adorable...

At DFW...This is their mom with Brielle, Jordan and Josslyn...

Our last photo together...

This was the hardest day of them all! When Brielle realized that we weren't going with them she began to wail, which caused the other two to wail and Bill and I had to walk away crying as well!

Our house was as empty as a tomb when we got back home, but gradually we've put our lives back together.

So HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSSLYN AND BRIELLE!

Blessings and hugs,

Barb

  1. Oh My goodness Barb what a touching post. I'm nearly in tears. It was so good to see the kids again then see them with their Mother but then the last picture of you all. I'm happy to hear that you're getting adjusted. WOW it was really good to see these pics!
    Hugs, Cathy

  3. Oh I hope you get a picture of them in their beautiful dresses. Gosh, 4 already? Did they stay in close touch the last time they were home? Do they live far from you? Hard to love them and then have to give them up.

  5. Oh Barb, the twins are growing up, as is Jordan. They are all so adorable. I know you miss them so much. Maybe they can come spend time in the summer with you. Thanks for keeping us up-to-date with them as well as yourself.

  6. Sweetie, I know how much you miss them and hopefully when they get their dresses they will be able to make contact. They do know you love them though :)

  7. Barb, the pictures are so adorable and I am so sorry you had to go through all the hurt, but oh the happy memories you had with them for the time you had them.. Oh what fun for you all.. Think they helped Bill recover quicker and they were good for your soul.. I am sure they will never forget you two and will be in touch with you very soon, just trying to get settled in with Mom and Dad and getting used to them... Things will be okay and you will be fine soon... Keep your chin up kiddo!!!
    Hugs, Jean
