Last night, the Gouges met Donei's brother, Andy for the first time. He was adopted in September of 2008 and lives about 4 hours north of us. (Since Andy came to CLM years after Donei and had a different father, the judge separated them when someone showed interest in adopting Andy. Regina, Andy's new mom, has come back to visit several times to allow the boys to spend time together.) When Tammy and Steve asked Donei for a list of people that he wanted to see before they left for the states, Andy was the first name he mentioned. His family will stay at CLM today to give the boys more time together. Please pray for Donei and Andy, as well as both of their new families.
