Welcome to the Carter blog. There once were 5 of us, then we grew to 11, then 14 for a short period and now are about to be 12. Some may say we are actually ONE EGG SHORT OF A DOZEN for choosing to have a large family. We hurt and cry and sometimes yell but then again we laugh, forgive, and have fun much more! We call ourselves FAMILY. Join us on the adventures we seem to fall into on our adoption journeys and family life. You never know what you will find!

God Sends a Cheery Note
Our Hi today (Melissa)
In the last couple of days God sent some little surprises my way and I wanted to share them here. Yesterday, I received a Christmas card from my very good friend Mukisa Richard in Uganda. Richard became like my brother while I was in Uganda and was always a great source of encouragement to me. Again on the date that I was feeling a little down missing the kids because it was the anniversary of their gotcha day, I received encouragement from my brother across the ocean. Today As I opened my email, I found the pictures attached below. John was another friend I made and a great help while in Uganda with many things. He proudly completed Bible School and is continuing his education towards being a lawyer. He wants to help kids who are less fortunate. John has a awesome story himself and is proof that God does take care of the orphan.
