Last Wednesday, we received an unexpected (wonderful) surprise. The FedEx truck came to our house delivering a cardboard envelope holding something we will treasure forever. Inside was a DVD with live footage of our future son!!
We had no idea when/if we would get any more information about him and certainly were not expecting it this soon! Seeing him play and clap to music was amazing and I knew that I was in love with this little boy! The video cleared up a lot of unknowns in my mind. I saw what he really looked like (quite a bit different than the little blurry picture we saw when we chose him) and let me say, he is even more of a cutie than I thought! We saw him observe the children around him and really seem to be thinking deeply about his new surroundings at the intake center. We saw him build with blocks and share with another child. We also saw him eat big spoonfuls of food and watch a beautiful smile come across his face.
Next weekend we are spending two days in Omaha participating in classes about international adoption and the adjustments we will need to prepare for. We are now more excited than ever and still beg you to pray for an efficient flow of paper work and task completion so this process can move quickly!
