So they call the adoption process a paper pregnancy. We must pull together many necessary documents, get them notarized, state certified, and sent to The Ministry of Women's Affairs in Ethiopia. Signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours. Would you believe that the photo above is our paperwork? Your right, it's not. The stack is not that huge, yet. Believe it or not, this process has been quite enjoyable. I've never felt overwhelmed, but I tried to take it bit by bit. We have really great, encouraging people through America World that are helping us out. I get to ask Nicole, Janiece, or Nikki all of my questions. We are near the end of this chase, this race to bring you to our doorstep. Your dad would say it's a super marathon. And he loves running, so it works out well. You know what has made this process so good? We have seen the Lord's provision a ton. He is good. Amen?I want to say a special prayer tonight for several people.
Your caretakers.
Miss Connie.
Your new cousin Chloe.
My cousin Brett who gets married this weekend.
Your dad.
And of course, you.
By the way, did you know how much we already love you? We love you just as much as if you were in my tummy right now.
Good night little man. Dream well.
hey, love your blog! very sweet...um, bubble blowing. definately not bazooka. but the sad thing is, chris could blow huge bubbles with almost all the gum, and i couldnt blow big bubbles with most of the gum. so its hard to judge the gum in these circumstances, because im pretty sure it had more to do with the persons bubble blowing ability. oh well...much fun in the process!
