To the far left are the proud parents of a precious baby boy. Next to Darrell and Krista is a group photo of our small group, we were gathered around for a baptism. We have a great "family" small group that we get to meet with every week in our home. We have awesome leadership and the group has really bonded. It is so awesome to celebrate this joyful news with them...Below is an email Donna, who is part of leadership sent.

Hey Family Group!!
Tonight we are THRILLED to let you know we have a new member!! Earlier today I received an email from Krista that they had gotten their approval letter for adoption through Christian Homes, and that the average wait would be 6-9 months, possibly sooner or later.. Then at 7 p.m. Elizabeth called me with the news that Darrell and Krista HAVE A LITTLE BOY. He was born Aug. 8th and they will be picking him up on Monday!!!!! He weighed 5 pounds 7 ounces at birth and now weighs 9 pounds, olive skin, and sandy-colored hair. Name is still pending....
Because of this wonderful news we are going to have a family group baby shower for them during our regular meeting time Sunday evening!!!! They will have selections at Target, but I am not sure how soon they will be registered. Duane and I ran to their house a few minutes ago to give them hugs and they weren't home, so they may have been at Target registering!!!!!!
Thank you God for blessing Darrell and Krista with this precious little boy!! Finally, the long, long wait is over!!!

See you all Sunday evening....
Duane and Donna

Here is a link to Krista's blog if you want to read more about them. She has not updated her blog yet, I think she may have a lot going on!!
