Exactly 2 months ago today we met our daughter for the first time. 2 whole months since we have seen her. I wonder if she is walking now? Has her hair grown? Does she remember our faces? It is such a strange thing to not know these details about your child, yet we knew this was the way it would have to be. We watched our video tonight again with the boys. Not the condensed version set to music, but the whole video we have of our time with her. I love hearing her giggle and seeing her respond to us. I love how the boys talk about her all the time and want to watch her video with us. We are really praying we are half-way through our waiting time, the trend seems to be more like 5 months in-between trips but we are praying and claiming that it will be less!
A song that has comforted me so much during this time is the song we have playing right now on our blog (be sure and turn on your volume). It reminds me how big our God is. He is above all things, over all things and created all things, so I can rest in the assurance He is with our Anna and comforting her as only He can do. "I AM" by Mark Schultz

Thanks for lifting us all up with your blog. The waiting is hard. Harder than I thought it would be. I will memorize Hab 2:3 Love you all, MILLY
I am praying for your family. It is so hard. Lean on Him, He will get you thru this difficult wait.

Anna is so blessed to be a part of your family. No matter where she is, she is your daughter. We pray for you, for all the zillions of papers to be perfectly received, for all the dots and crosses to be where they should be, for a judge who sees your hearts of unconditional love and devotion to this precious one. Half way. I like the sound of that.
