We've just put the Reeves family on the plane down to Cebu. They are going down to see the home where Ana came from. This after spending a few days with us here in Taytay getting to know Mary Jem, adopted from the little children's home.

This morning, on the way out shopping and to the airport, Ana gave me this lovely picture she drew for us. From left to right and from bottom to top (the order she explained it to me in) are: Ana, Auden, Aubrey, Mary with Kadeesha, Grandma and mom. Then Darren, Terry, and Deborah.

Kadeesha, the oldest sister, is so eager a care-giver that Vicki and Terry barely have an oportunity to act like the new parents they are.

Somehow we missed getting a picture of her, but Gwen, the girls' grand-mother was able to come along as well. A very loving batch for Mary to fall in with.

The note on the back of Ana's drawing.
