All glory to god for putting this special task into the hands of HF, Anna's mommy. Words can never be enough. We hope to leave this book with Ian when we are forced to leave him at the orphanage after our first trip. We don't want him to think we just left him and that we are not coming back.
THAT IS BEAUTIFUL - WHAT A TREASURE!!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, your house is really cute. Second of all, this entire book is precious, third of all, i just have a vision of a caregiver reading him this book. So sweet!
ReplyDeleteThanks Julia and Molly! Can't wait to give it to him. Sad that that will likely be not until 2011. But it will be.
ReplyDeleteMan that is so sweet! Your family is beautiful and I just can't wait to see a new pic with Ian right there in the middle next to his brother Ari :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Melissa! Hope you are home soon:) I actually wish were in Ian's country right now but, God has his time and reasons, and I know we will be there at the right time. Thank you for your wishes! I cannot wait for that photo either!!
ReplyDeleteOH GRETCHEN THAT WAS SOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!! seriously, what a touching book for precious ian!
ReplyDeleteThank you Rachel, can't wait to read it to him with him and Ari sitting on my lap together. I hope the Orphanage will allow Ari to come in when we meet him the first time. It is amazing to me that when we walk in to meet him for the first time, he will be looking on his family - his forever family. We will be looking at our son for the first time, it is overwhelming and I know you know the feeling, many times over. Prayer has walked us to this point and I know God will continue to provide for us to complete Ian's adoption prior to his 5th birthday in April.
ReplyDeleteMan, I wish I could give him this next week. It's gonna kill me not to tell him about you! oh, what a blessed little boy he is to have you.
ReplyDelete@Heather: I feel the same about sweet little Anna, oh to have all of those wonderful siblings! She will adore her new family! I cannot wait to see her big smile while lying around the beach on a family vacation! Wee hee - Auntie Heather is going to see my baby! So so happy and eager, living vicariously through you for the next few weeks!:)
