Dobre dei--Good day! No idea of the spelling, though! HaHa! It's 8:46pm here on Tuesday (12:46pm in Alabama) and we are just hanging out again. Jackson is working on a little bit of his school work, thanks to Mrs. Evans and Briarwood. The rest of us are just chatting and watching him. Well, today was another busy day. We went to the notary and filled out the official paperwork to begin the adoption. We then went to see them and played a little bit outside. We had a very good time with them. We plan on taking Jackson to meet them tomorrow (Wednesday) so please pray for that meeting. We just have complete peace in our hearts and minds that pursuing adoption of these 2 little boys is God's plan for our family. Every step since the initial referal has pointed directly to them. Even the place God has blessed us to stay is amazing! Obviously there are still so many things that have to be done so we are trusting God to continue with us each step! We are counting on all of you for your support and love as we go through some major changes in our family! We can already tell that a lot of you are experiencing the same fears and worries that we are.....and that just shows us how much you love us. So we do just beg you to stand with us as we bridge the gap in these 2 little boys' lives. We can't wait to watch what God will do for all of us next.

  3. Melanie and Greg,
    The progress you are making in getting the boys is so exciting. We know you can hardly wait until it is done. What cute little boys they are, and how blessed they are that God has brought you and them together. May things continue to go well.

  4. The boys are beautiful! Charles and we agreed today that they look enough like you to be your biological children!

    We will pray that Jackson will just love then and they him.

    We will be excited to meet them ourselves!

  5. Hey guys! Just as a little comic relief, I must tell you that this blog is so addictive! I literally cannot wait until the next update! But in all seriousness, I literally thank God for such wonderful technology in our lives, you know? I feel like we (stalker blog-watchers) are literally on this journey with you...and I love it. I hope you feel the love from home, because we are here to support you 100%. I am so excited about the bond you are forming with these beautiful boys, and I pray that Jackson is just as excited about the potential of 2 brothers. All I can say is I might have lost my cool Pictochat status...and I'm ok with that!
    Love you guys!

    p.s. just noticed you changed your blog name...I think "Maxwell, party of 5" kinda has a nice ring to it ;)

  6. Thinking of you today and hope all is going well! I prayed that God would touch Jackson's heart and just feel him with a special love for his brothers! Take care and yes the house is great! God does provide each step of the way! Love and Blessings, Jim and Donna

  7. Praying for you and Jackson today. Keeping him close to heart as I know he is having a big day meeting his brothers. I know God is watching over you today and cheering at the site of your family all together at last. Tell Jackson, Matt is excited about his new friends and really misses his best buddy. We had to drive by your house yesterday just to show him that he wasn't there! Love you guys,
    Mary Margaret,Keith, Matt and Little E

  8. It's 10:45 P.M. there and I've not been able to
    pull up a message for Wednesday, Feb. 11th. Hope things went well for you today. Was wondering what Jackson thought of his new brothers. Won't they have fun playing together!!
    Still praying that things go smoothly and you
    won't have to stay additional time. We miss
    you and want you to keep us informed.
    Love,
    Mama
