Our beautiful Daughter,

 Hailey Grace was born 

August 20, 2016

weighing 6lbs 13 oz. 

she is loved and adored by all. 

Let us come before him with thanksgiving 

and extol him with music and song.

~Psalms 95:2 

“Many are the plans in a man’s heart,

 but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails.”

– Proverbs 19:21

This Bible verse has become very real to me the last few months,

As some of you may already know, we are leaving Cambodia to head back to Canada. 

not at all what we thought was our future at  this point of our lives. But God has made it clear to us that it would be best to go home to have the baby this summer.  We did not feel comfortable with the healthcare system here in Asia, due to the fact of previous complications with our other pregnancies.

God does have a plan and purpose  for everything and we want to trust and follow his leading in our lives.  

We are excited to see family and friends back in Canada. But know we will feel sad to be leaving Cambodia and our dear Khmer friends. Not knowing if God will call us back to Cambodia in the future after the baby is born. 

Yes they are very excited and we feel so blessed! 

Please continue to pray for us as we pack and say goodbyes over the next week.Our flight leaves Cambodia at 12:15 am on March 15. We are to arrive in Canada 1:40 pm  on March 15. It looks like a short flight, but believe me its not! :)  There is a 14 hour time difference, from Cambodia to where we are going in Canada.

Until next time...... the Whitman family. 

Happy New Year.

                                                     

  I struggle with where to start on here. Sorry its been so long and yes a lot has happened. A trip to Thailand,  My parents and sister coming, Christmas, and now a totally fresh new Year.

I will post a few highlights. My Family came the beginning of December, bearing loads of amazing goodies, Including HAM! it was such a special treat to eat for Christmas.

We took went to Kep for a few days before Christmas.  

Was a fun and relaxing time.

Making sand angels since they can't make snow angels

                                             Reading the menu, 3 hungry people!

                                               Enjoying a relaxing boat ride. We also saw dolphins.

These children we on a island we visited they were starving for love and followed us everywhere.
We wished so badly we had brought them Bible stories.

                                                        A small fishing island.

Family...

Christmas day was a fun day with eating Western style food, Ham (that my Mom brought over) Yummy mashed potatoes, carrots, salad, jello, dinner rolls and fruit.And chocolate cake for dessert.

needless to say we were stuffed to the top.

                                          All the children in our neighborhood love this game.

                                                     the Children eating dinner.
