The news out of
Haiti regarding our adoption has had me quite down lately. This process is always full of ups and down
so I should be used to it by now. We had
the most incredible high when we got to meet our little guy, then the indescribable
low of leaving him, the high of anticipation that things might start moving with the adoption and then the current low again
that things again have come to a standstill. Currently, we have yet to be
approved from our trip and just wait for the government to approve us as his
adoptive parents so that we can exit the system and progress through courts to
begin the process to bring him home.
(Are you beginning to wonder why I named this the pick-me-up?)
Today we received
our update picture!! Each month we receive a picture and a short update on how
he is doing. Here is our gem for this
month. Oh my heart! I have cried for almost two hours and would
board a plane today if I thought I would be allowed. One thing that helps my heart is to see his joy. We have prayed so much for his heart to be
guarded. Through all of the mayhem, slow
time frames and frustrations on our end I realize that he doesn’t know any of
it. He is just living life. May God continue to guard him, protect him,
keep him and shelter him until we can bring him home!!
Oh my goodness,
what I wouldn’t do to get my hands on him again!
