Almost time!

So here we are two nights before we get on an airplane to meet our son and boy are we overwhelmed with emotions. My heart is aching for my daughter. How tough it will be for her to be away from mommy and daddy for three weeks (or more)! We have never been away from her for more than 24 hours before. At the same time we are so excited to meet our son. I desperately want to hold him in my arms and promise him that he will be surrounded by people who love him for the rest of his life. I want to tell him how much I already love him and how wonderful his new home and family is. I ache to tell him that it is going to be alright and I will do everything in my power to meet his every need from here on out. Boy do we have a great God! He has blessed us so abundantly and we have seen Jesus through so many of you! We are so humbled to be surrounded by such amazing people. Your love, prayers and support have not only changed our lives forever but also the life of our precious son whom God is giving to us through the miracle of adoption! What a powerful testimony he will have. How wonderful is it that one day we can share with our son that not only does Jesus, mommy and daddy love you but so many loved you so much that they donated their money, time, prayers and support to bring you home forever. Our hearts have been so deeply touched that we will never be able to forget God’s goodness and grace through out this entire process. He has taught us how to depend solely on him for strength and comfort. He has taught us about patience and has given us a peace that passes all understanding. To God be the glory!
We love you all and look forward to seeing you again soon!
