I couldn't get up this morning. I literally did not want to get out of bed and start the day of waiting again. We've been waiting for 2.5 years for our little boy to come home, but yesterday drug on and on and seemed like I couldn't check my email enough.
I sent Cayden to school one hour late with a note that said this:
Please excuse Cayden from being late to school today. His sister was up a lot in the night. My husband is out of town. Another earthquake hit Haiti this morning.
Thank you!
I think that was enough explanation for now.
You are amazing! Praying for you every hour, literally 🙂
i’ve been thinking of you lots today. your silence has had me praying for you all morning. i love your updates and following you on twitter (especially yesterday-you were cracking me up)i can’t imagine what you are feeling but your voice about Haiti brought me and many others into a deeper love for Haiti and the children there. you say the livesays are your heros, and i agree, but you and your family are heros in my book too. praying for a supernatural peace to be yours today.
My prayers are especially with you today Jamie. I know a little something about waiting {not like you do}. What a strange, cruel, and difficult thing it is, but grace does come. During it’s ugly stages I go to Psalm 40(B) for comfort. God be with you!
Bless your heart.
Your note says plenty & made me cry. I’ll bet it made Cayden’s teacher cry, too. Praying for your family & all of Haiti.
Mine didn’t even make it to school yesterday and I didn’t even send a note today…we just had a day to ourselves and made it a LONG holiday weekend!! Sending lots of hugs,

I sent one with Christina today that basically said, “Please don’t make Christina take her science test. She hasn’t studied because I haven’t unpacked her notes since our trip last week, because of the earthquake in Haiti. She could take it Friday, but Monday would be better. Thanks for understanding.”
The teacher said don’t worry about it, and just let her know when we were ready. God bless her.
