I don't really want to talk about the adoption anymore. Seriously. I love it that my friends and family are interested and concerned about the adoption, but I'm tired of talking about it. Dennis joked that we need T-shirts that say, "We hope to have him home by the end of June." I'm not ungrateful for the prayer support we're receiving. As a matter of fact, I crave it! It's answering the same questions that's causing the fatigue. At the base of this is this simple truth: We're not in control. We don't have solid answers because we can't control the process. Our next "milestone" will be when we receive an E-mail saying that we've been submitted to the U.S. Embassy. Right now D's passport, birth certificate and medical testing are being done. When that is finished, our "case" will be submitted to the Embassy, and we'll wait for the next step in the process to be finished.
I've uploaded one of our "goodbye" pictures. I can't show his face, yet. When that time comes, you'll probably get tired of all of the pictures!
I understand. Know that we'll keep lifting you up. No better way to learn to wait on God than to adopt one of His children. Love you guys!
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly why we started our blog originally, Julie...because we were getting deathly tired of answering the same questions over and over again. Now we often tell people to "just read the blog!"
ReplyDeletePraying for you too as we both wait on news from the Embassy...
