Today...

I am missing our sweet little boy more than anything.

I am realizing that it was 8 months ago today that we sent in LOI to adopt him.

I am thinking that is WAY to long to wait.

I am feeling very sick of this Hague process, which is keeping kids waiting. And making them get too many shots (KEEP SIGNING!!! There are over 1200 signatures now. I noticed a lot of signatures of those who read my blog... keep spreading the word!!)

I am praying for his heart to be prepared for our family.

I am hoping that his care package gets to him and we get some updated pictures and measurements.

I am getting excited about the possibility that we could be in/about to leave for China in a month.

Today, I am simply wanting to hold this sweet child in my arms... to let him know that he is loved and cherished and I am praying with all my might that we could SOMEHOW, in SOME WAY be in China in one month. Because I know that I serve an incredible God. And He can do ANYTHING.

((HUGS)) I know that feeling! We are praying that your TA arrives soon and Charlie is with your family forever.

I wanted to let you know that Evan recognized him from your pictures on the blog. I made the mistake of pointing to where the big kids sleep and he signed no and pointed to the building where the babies and toddlers sleep. He was pretty excited to see him! :)

Oh I'm right there with ya! We sent in our LOI for Khloe last June and had our PA the same month. Like you, we are still waiting on our TA. All of our paper are still in GZ, but our agency is hopeful we will travel in April. Praying we'll both have our kiddos home soon!

Blessings,

I am praying for you and Charlie and our own sweet boy who is stuck waiting because of the Hague Process. My heart is breaking too to hold our son in our arms. It is horrible to have families seperated for so long!
