He's three today and it's been an incredible three year journey with him.
My life has never been the same.
There have been hair-pulling days and days full of joy, but I love being his mom and being a part of his life. He calls birthdays Happy Days! So let's all be happy today in celebration of his day!
We received fifteen new photos of Melaku yesterday. This is almost unheard of and was a sweet blessing from the Lord. We feel very blessed to be receiving all the information that we have.
Today we received word that he has been taken for his second medicals!! Woo-hoo! There is still one test that is not in country, but they feel that in two weeks he'll have that test and his second medicals will be complete.
And then...our case can be submitted to court.
Speaking of court---they reopen OCTOBER 5TH! Yay!
That's very soon (at least when I think about waiting and waiting for months, one more month doesn't seem so long.)
Thank you all for praying for us. I know God is hearing and working and answering and we pray He is glorified through all of this. May you truly see something of how the Father works in our own lives through the adoption of Melaku.
We are beginning a new fundraising phase for travel expenses and Melaku's medical expenses. We're praying through the right thing to do, so join us.
If you would like to help us you can still donate to our Lifesong for Orphans account and you'll receive a tax credit for it.
You can email me for the info if you're interested.
We love you all and praise God for you in our lives.
What a joy it is to walk this journey with you!!
