Getting Closer . . . Almost DTC

What a roller coaster of emotions as we wait for our final approval before sending "all" our
documents to China where we will then be logged in the database and just wait for our approval.  Whewwww!!  Our biggest struggle has been fingerprinting as we've had to redo, redo, and redo.
I'm just holding my breath that we don't have to redo the USCIS prints.  Tomorrow will be a week
since mom and I were printed.  I've tried to ignore the mailbox and dread opening the door.  Praying the prints go through just fine.  God's got this, I just tend to get a little impatient. 

As we wait we have been very blessed to have received some updated pictures of Ian.   Each picture shows his sweet little personality.  What a cutie!!!  Here's a couple of the new one's:


 
 
For those who don't know his story, our sweet little guy was burned as a baby suffering severe burn injuries over his head, face, hand, and legs.  My heart just breaks for him.  I can not even imagine what he went through as a baby.  He's already had several surgeries and he has a long way to go. We'll be right there with him.  We would appreciate prayers for him for his journey ahead, not only with his medical needs, but also with the transition of a new family.  It's hard on these kids being taken out of their comfort zone and into an unknown place far, far away never seeing the family they have come to know and all the familiarities.  They are so resilient.  We can't wait to get on the plane to bring him home.  But we'll try to wait patiently on God's perfect timing. 
 
 
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to him, and he will make straight your paths". Prov. 3:5&6
