Mother's Day ended with both children puking, and I woke up Monday morning and joined them. We all laid around in front of the tv on Monday, because that was about all we could do.
Monday afternoon we got a letter in the mail from Show Hope saying we got a $2500 grant!! Then, less than an hour after another session of puke, we got a call from our agency saying our RA arrived! This means that China has approved us to adopt Brendan. And this means you can now see him!
We also found out that we will most likely travel in August. And if we receive our travel approval in July, like expected, we won't have to pay the additional $2750 we thought we would have to due to changes in post placement requirements. So as soon as Pete got home from work, he had to head over to the Fed Ex office to send in a form to USCIS.
We got the Welcome to Travel email Monday as well, and I was once again overwhelmed by all the next things that need to get done. I can't believe we're not done with paperwork! And then it hit me...we are traveling to China in 3 months! So much to do!
We are praising the Father for all His good gifts to us, even in the midst of sickness.

Yay! Congrats again! He's such a cutie. Loved Aidan's drawing, too.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations a month late, you guys! I am so bad about checking blogs anymore, so I was thrilled to hear about Brendan! And also to catch up on pictures. I am amazed at how huge both Iona and Aidan are. Amazing.
