In Loving Memory of Jaxon

Their is no words to describe when you lose a loved one but today is no exception for the Jaco family.
Friday night they found out their beloved son they were in the process of adopting has passed away. They don't know when or how just that he is in the arms of Jesus. With faith they will continue this adoption path God has set for them. Please allow them this time for them to grieve with no questions asked. Though he never got the chance to know his forever family, he was dearly loved by all his friends & family. He will be in their hearts always, Jaxon Jeremiah Jaco. Rest in sweet peace dear little boy.

In Loving Memory of Jaxon & his 15 months of life, can you go donate $15 to the Jaco family as they continue in the journey.

When saying see ya later is so Hard

This next week is going to be the fastest week of my life & the most difficult, cause my little brother has graduated & is off to college in another state. I don't know why this is harder than when my sister went off to college I really think it would be easier with a brother than a sister but nope over the last few years from me down to my little sister the four of us have definitely grown closer than ever. I have had a good relationship with Matt, as he is just a good listener with a good opinion of things. This see ya later is going to be rough as you say goodbye to the good times blasting out Disney songs in "bessie", enjoying chickfila, watching movies & addicting tv shows, oh & the best hugs. How do you say See ya later? Being halfway across the USA from your brother or anyone you love for that matter is just plain ole hard. One thing for sure, I better have a stockpile of tissues cause I am certainly going to need it! Don't get me wrong I am so proud of my brother & happy for him! You don't know how hard he has worked to catch up his final year. Thankfully he is going back to our state we were born in & will live close by to my Grandma & other extended family so that reassures me he will be fine but still this sister is not looking forward to August 11th.
As children we have some great memories & tough ones but our love for each other has always remained.
                             

                                          We love you for bear hugs & going to miss you with that

                               
                                                 From the baseball all star

      To being the simply awesome super support star to Pink Princess & others with disabilities!

To being the simply adorable

                                                         
                                                  Handsome & mature

                                       
                              Making me laugh with your sense of Humor

And rocking it out on the drums

I AM SO PROUD OF YOU & YOUR GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENTS!

I so wish we could go back to these days. We have been the best of siblings but I know college will do you some good if though its going to be strange not having you around.

       Its especially hard to say goodbye when you likely won't see him til 4 months from now so all I will say is SEE YA LATER ALLIGATOR!

Family

Family can be anyone, whether your related biologically, adopted, or by the blood of christ. I want you all to know that I appreciate my Family! Every single one of you in my Reeces Rainbow Family, my family, & my Christian family!! After I announced my exciting news I had never seen so many likes & comments on my post on Facebook. Its pretty scary to go to a new country you have never been to before but all the love thats been shared over the past week has me uplifted & encouraged so I THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I especially want to thank my "big sis" Becki, you have been such a blessing to me over the years of knowing you & I appreciate your enthusiasm for what I do. You have encouraged me big time as I take this leap to go to Russia. When I first received the message from the family asking if I wanted to go, I was scared cause I was not sure if I could raise the passport & visa fees but now I have no doubt I will get to go. Please continue to pray! I'm so over the moon excited to go & I thank the family for giving me this opportunity!  My heart is already in love with this country & counting the months til I get to go! Google translate is already to go on my Iphone & my brother is taking Russian this year so that will certainly help me!

I think I want to have some blog posts about Russia history & the country in general but first in that series I might have my mom, Dad, & older sister write about the church in Novgorod that they were a part of.
