Oh this made me cry because I thought of how we will be welcomed into heaven with this kind of joy and excitement. I though of how my husband, parents, and other loved ones will greet me. So very, very precious!

What a sweet precious family you have. My sister, who met you at Created for Care turned me on to your blog, and I just LOVE it! Your newest addition is just the cutest, and seems like he fits right in! He and my oldest son are only a couple days apart, and that is such a sweet age.

I don’t “stalk” many blogs of people of I don’t know-ha, but your family is just too cute 🙂 Good luck settling in with you new angel.

So beautiful! I started crying! My husband and I are just beginning our journey to China Adoption, and I cannot imagine the joy, and overwhelming love you felt! Praise Jesus for another child who is home FOREVER!

We are…HOME!

We made it home last night at 7:30pm! So thankful!!! We are just settling and enjoying being together. Will post more later:) He woke up at 3:45am–I fixed him warm oatmeal with bananas…and we are just enjoying the quiet together in our HOME! So thankful. God is good! Now…to settle in as a family and […]

Couldn’t be happier for all of you. I will be in Atlanta next week for a conference…wishing there was time to meet face to face and connect in person. Continued prayers as you transition to home and life as family of SEVEN. Hugs across the miles!

Hallelujah!! So thankful you are all home safe and sound. I get teary-eyed just thinking about all the love going on in your home. Praying for quiet, special moments together, just enjoying each other.

Things I love about you…

My sweet Zeke. I love the way you cut your eyes and grin at me–almost from behind as I hold you in my lap. I love the way you hide you face on my chest when things are overwhelming and the way you say my name…mama–in a scratchy whisper…it melts my heart every time. I […]

This post totally made me go ‘awwww…how adorable.’ It’s so sweet. Maybe when your son grows up, he can one day read all the lovely things you’ve written here, Andrea.

Fun day? Done day!

So today is the day our trip was completely planned around—our U.S. Consulate Appointment. Our appointment was for 8:30am. And we had to get a taxi to get there and our guide told us she’d meet us in the lobby at 8:20am. So we left the hotel around 8am as it was a 15 minute […]

Thanks for sharing your frustrations and showing us that everything in your life is not perfect as it sometimes seems. I had tears in my eyes when you shared how God had just the right believer right there in the elevator to encourage and uplift you.

Maureen - June 10, 2013 - 5:43 pm

Andrea,

I am so NOT surprised by God’s intervention in your frustration. He is always with you and your family is so worth it! I am not surprised He sent that beautiful angel all the way to be with you and remind you of His love.

Keep sharing your REAL life! We all love it! You are truly an inspiration! Safe travels home. Can’t wait for you to be rested up in your own home and sharing your story again. Take all your time you need.

Blessings!
