Tonight as we sleep a judge in Ethiopia will be reviewing our case to make our adoption official. We're praying that everything is in place, everyone shows up, there are keys to the file cabinets, the fax machines and copiers have paper and that God's will be done. We are praying that no matter what happens this time that we have our faith and trust firmly grounded in Christ and will continue to trust in Him throughout the remainder of this process.
Last night we got to meet up with an awesome family who just got back from picking up their two little ones in Ethiopia last week. We saw them and couldn't keep our eyes off of them; they were so beautiful and full of life! They took a care package for us when they went and had some wonderful pictures for us. Not only did they have pictures but they had video too! What a blessing to be able to see our little guy moving and interacting with people! He seemed so happy and aware. He would look at whoever was talking to him and just smile. Seeing him reach up and touch their faces was really sweet. I think I've watched it at least 10 times, maybe 20. They also surprised us with his foot print on paper. How amazing to see that foot! He's got big feet! It just makes it all the more real. We started this process with paper, then our first photo, now video and a foot print. Next we'll get to see him up close and in person. I just can't wait!
Thank you so much to the Roots for such an amazing gift, you guys are the best!!
