A Special Reunion

Devil's Lake in Baraboo Wisconsin
Andrew loves to swim so was very disappointed when he had to wait to put on his swimsuit. Once we got started on a little hike down this amazing path cut through a sky high wall of rock he settled down and began to enjoy it.
Andrew and Ben meet again. They spent their first few years together in a Chinese orphanage. Ben was fortunate to spend part of that time in foster care but the orphanage workers claimed that the two were best buddies. They had a good time playing together over the weekend.
Our rustic little cabin. The beautiful park was right across the street.


Andrew, Leah and Ben. As usual the weekend went way to fast and we were soon on our way home. It was a very special time. We enjoyed the company of Ben's Mom & Dad and hope to make this at least a yearly event. As we talked about things on the way home we felt like the Palmer's should have been there. They were our travel companions in Nanjing and also have a special boy from the same part of China. Maybe next year?

Oh they look so happy! We would love to join you someday. It looks like the boys had so much fun seeing each other again. I'm so happy that they have their forever families now.

God bless, Heather Palmer
