More Fabric!


I'm so excited to get more fabric for Ethan's quilt. That's 6 squares. We have a long ways to go. 94 more squares to go. Thanks to Kris, John & kids. We truly appreciate the fabric & good wish.

Well, it finally hit me this morning. I'm ready for our son to be home. I'm ready to start taking care of him. I'm ready to get to know him. I think this time around, our 3rd adoption, I am not "as" anxious to get him home, as I was for Abby & Jadyn. I think I was anxious for Abby because she was our 1st baby waiting in China. Jadyn I was anxious because she was older and we had updated photos of her, and we were seeing her grow up without us. But with Ethan, yes I want him home, but the girls are keeping me so busy, I have not had much down time to really think about it. But this morning, it hit me. I need him home!

It's hard not knowing how long it will take to get our dossier translated. With how everything is going, I'm praying its fast. But we just won't know. I have had a lot of paperwork to do in this wait. Paperwork we'll need to bring him home. Once we get RA then we send all of this off. This could add a few weeks to our wait to travel. Again, praying it won't add too much time.

Today as I was going through some people's blogs, I came across this site Ladybugs N Love I think I would like to look into using them after we get our RA. I would like to get updated measurements of Ethan and hopefully even some updated photos. We are not supposed to contact the SWI until after RA, and since that was a question on the one form we had to fill out, then I think we'll wait until after RA. We did sent packages to the girls, and it was expensive to mail. I'm thinking if we use this service, then it will be close to what we would spend if we did it ourselves. AND, we can't get updated info our photos on our own.

Counting the days. Well, trying not to. Time is going by fast, even though some days it does not seem like it. It's been over 3 weeks since referral. Almost 2 weeks since PA.

Praying for some good news in the near future. Thanks for praying with us. And please send us some fabric & a good wish. :-)

Until next time......

  1. I used Ann at Red Threads. She works very hard (without getting into details) to get info. Think about using her too.
