How it all began . . .

The idea of adopting a child has long been a spiritual calling for us. We always knew in our hearts that when the time was right we would begin our adoption journey. Never could we imagine that it would be this miraculous.

Just more waiting . . .

We received and email from our agency last night - it appears that the knock out from PGN is taking longer than expected to resolve. The reason for this is that someone needs to physically go to the home town that the birth mother was born to obtain a new copy of her ID document. Apparently, this location is in the "boondocks". The email said that the attorney is hoping to be able to get it next week.
What should have only taken a week is now landed us on week #3 of waiting. The reality of having Anthony home for Christmas is fading and we are trying hard to come to grips with that. I know this is all up to God, and that He is leading and in control. I really DO believe and trust in that, but it is just so hard!!!
The nice thing is that Eric (our agency director) was able to visit with Anthony and take pictures. As you can see, AJ is getting so big and is being well cared for by his Foster Mother. We are extremely relieved to see him sitting up and physically mobile. Prior to getting these pictures, Anthony was always laying on his back. Although I have only posted a few of the bunch we were sent, some of the pictures appear as though he is actually trying to get down- off of Marissa's (the Foster Mom) lap!
