This is the beginning of the end of our adoption journey. Finally!! With a dossier sitting in China for over two years, a special needs adoption sounded like the answer to our prayer for an addition to our family of four.
The first week of December we sent our paperwork to our agency to change to special needs. The following week they sent us a picture of our darling little boy. With heart surgery one year behind him, he looked happy and healthy. Saying no was not an option.
So here we are- three days away from our 15 hour journey to China. John-Luc is ready to stay at grandpa's and grandma's and Morgan is excited, but scared, to travel back to her country of birth.
We are so blessed to be able to travel with another family from Colorado, Joe and Lisa Lynn. They've already proved to be a great support to us as we anxiously waited for our "invitation to travel." Their four year old daughter, Aliya, is also traveling with them, so Morgan will have a new friend. It will be an exciting time for both families.
Please keep praying for our little guy, Jax.
Safe travels, guys! I can't wait to hear more about Jax...he's so adorable! Hugs to you all and best wishes for a smooth transition to a family of 5!
