Haven't wanted to type this journal.....basically in denial! 

Busy May came and went and then it was time for Ryan and Amanda to fly back to the US.  Mucho tears.  All of us. 

They both served faithfully, honoringly (if that is a word), with joy (sometimes sacrificial I know), and with much grace, mercy, and love.  I couldn't have been more blessed.  Daniela, Tony, and Eli couldn't have been more blessed.  They both became part of our family (whether they wanted it or not)! 

They will be greatly missed.  I am sorry for the circumstances that happened that brought them to Hope Farm, but I will forever be grateful for their love and willingness to let God pick up their hearts and move forward.  What troopers, what teachers, what reflections of Christ.  

We love you Amanda and Ryan!
