Video

Today we received the rest of the video of Andrew Hudson! Oh my Word precious is an understatement! He talks and even smiles/grins!! Woo Hoo! He made my Mom's heart smile as Anna Grace would say by saying Mama in the video! Oh I can't wait to hold this sweet boy!!!

We also got our Homestudy approved and we have started our I800A!! Please pray this goes super quickly!!! :)

Have a blessed week and Please continue to pray for us!

Dear Sweet Andrew,
I can't wait for you to come home! I am so excited! Unfortunately I am not patiently awaiting. I am actually counting down the days, hours and minutes until we hold you. You have already become so much a part of our life and I can not wait to finally see your sweet face and hold you and kiss you! That will be a wonderful day. Just like it was with your Mei Mei, Anna Grace. We are all anxious to finally meet you! We got your video today and it was SO sweet and only made me want you more! We will be SO blessed when we finally hold you! Oh what a magic and glorious day that will be.
Blowing you Kisses in the Wind-
Sissy

The Waiting Child

I saw you meet your child today
You kissed your baby joyfully
And as you walked away with her
I played pretend you’d chosen me.

I’m happy for the baby, yet
Inside I’m aching miserably
I want to plead as you go by,
“Does no-one want a child of three?”

I saw you meet your child today
But this time there was something new
A nurse came in and took my hand
And then she gave my hand to you.

Can this be true? I’m almost four!
And there are infants here you see?
But then you kissed me and I knew
The child you chose this time was me.

Build-A-Bear

We went to Build-A-Bear workshop while at the beach and I made Andrew a bear. We were so excited to be able to make one for him! Here is a collage of a few pictures of me making the bear! I love the bear and I hope Andrew will too! I can't wait to bring this sweet boy home!!
