These two weeks have
become super special to the Edwards family! Last week (5/15/12) was Brodee’s 4th
birthday and Kadin’s 5th birthday is this week (5/24/12)! Most people think that they are twins, but,
they’re almost 1 year apart!
June 18th,
of last year, these little guys came to stay with my family. It was originally
for foster care. I can’t say that any of us knew, in our hearts, that it was
meant to be; the first couple of months that they were with us were extremely
rough.
It was the Saturday after I came back from China… We met Kadin and Brodee exactly 11 days after I met Sophie and they came to live with us exactly 4 days after I came home from China. You may call us crazy, go ahead.

Like I said, the
first couple of months were very difficult. It wasn’t until mid-August of last
year that my family felt that it was God’s will that they become a part of our
family and that is when we decided to start the process to adopt our little boys.
They have been with us for 11 months now, and I cannot express how good God has been to us. He has performed huge miracles through Kadin and Brodee! God has proved to us that HE is all powerful, all knowing, strong, and faithful. He is a good Father to His children and finds favor in bringing Kadin and Brodee into our lives.

To celebrate the
lives of these young guys, we had cake, ice cream, presents, and our family at
Mamaw Lucy’s house, yesterday afternoon. They were so excited about their “par-tay”
