Home at last

We are home at last and what an AMAZING welcome we had waiting for us at Omaha Airport.
We fell in a bawling heap and just smooched and loved on our kids right there on the carpet outside the security gate, it was incredible feeling to have all 5 kids together at last.
I will blog more later about the last few days of Ethiopia and the trip home.

We praise God for your return. You have now witnessed His goodness and faithfulness in a way that can never be fully understood by others. But you can live in the fulness of His blessing, giving Him the glory in the lives of your children, leading them in the way everlasting. We love you all and will continue to pray for you long after the novelty has worn off. You are truly on a life-long mission... and we will be there to support you.

Love, the Reynolds

I'm so glad you guys arrived safely home. I can't imagine how exhausted you must be! I wish I could be there to see your whole new family together.

Love you guys,

We're so glad to hear that you are all home safely! Our prayers are with you as you recover from jet lag and manage 5 children.

We thought it was hard with 2 kids! You'll need double the strength!

We would love to see all of you when live begins to resemble "normal." Know that you can call any time. We're here to answer questions and help in any way we can.

What a crazy trip you've had! Guess the Thorpe family Christmas will be nuts this year with all the new additions to the family. We look forward to hearing about your trip, seeing your pictures and of course meeting out 2 new cousins!

Take care!
