Prayers Answered!

"Gotcha Day" with Brian, Leah, and Olivia and Hirally, Chad, Diego, and Khirrissa.

This is the social worker that was assigned to Seth's foster family. She was great help and even bought Seth lunch today. She is so wonderful.



We received word today that the US Embassy here has our cable. Thank you, thank you everyone for praying!!! We go tomorrow (Wed.) to our board meeting.

Seth did great today. He did cry a lot but was easily soothed and has started reaching for Joel and I. He doesn't seem to be particular about which one of us holds him. We were out a lot today and he loved the Ergo. We wore him out tonight and he went right to sleep. Let's just hope he cuts out the night feedings by himself! :-)

I'm so glad you got through your USCIS stuff - we completely understand that feeling!!! :) We were told Jesse ate twice during the night - but he never woke up looking for a bottle (so of course we didn't wake him) :)
I love reading your journey!!!!
