Tomorrow is Christmas in Ethiopia. We were supposed to come home tomorrow. So sad that our little guy will not be with us any time soon. We found out that no one has any idea as to when he could come home. The Embassy is reviewing cases further and especially from the orphanage that he is at (long story).
The good news is that we got an update on Tuesday. He still is a "very active little boy" they say. He's smiling in all of his pictures and his cognitive and motor skills are right where they should be. He even gained almost three pounds since we've left! Who knew we would have a chunky baby from Ethiopia! He's playing with the rings that my sister sent with us to give to him in one of the pictures. We so miss him and feel such a connection to this little guy that we've been praying for, for years. We love him so much and can't wait to get that email that says to pack our bags.......oh, wait they ARE packed. :) We could leave in about 20 minutes if we need to!
Trying to remember what the Christmas season is about today. God has given us a gift and he is our son. Jesus was "adopted" too. I know that God has a plan for our family and I am confident that this little boy will bless us with his presence very soon. Merry Christmas "H." We love you.
