Flooding in Manila




As we've been waiting for word about picking up the boys I watch the current news and weather coming from the Philippines. Just makes me feel connected with Lucas and Eli's days. They have now been through 4 typhoons since moving to Manila and for the past 30 plus days it has rained everyday. Not unusual for this time of year but unfortunately Manila and Luzon have been hit by another typhoon this week-end. From the news and videos things in Manila are very bleak. Power is out and cars had to be abandoned in the streets. People are wading through water up to their necks in places and houses have been washed away. We are anxiously waiting to hear how the boys and the foster family are doing. At the best of times this takes days of communication because of the time difference, now with no power we just pray that they are safe.
