1460 days...35,040 hours...50,457,600 minutes since...

So it has finally arrived...the dreaded or anticipated 4 year LID mark.
Our dossier arrived in China 48 months ago or you can reference the ginormous number listed in the title.
What now?
The answer is the same as it has always been for us...wait because answers will come. Never mind the rip-our hearts out opportunity we had to actually bring a baby home.
SHE WAS NOT..." HER."
Heavenly Father has led us down this path for a REASON and a PURPOSE that only HE knows. For our learning and our good...eventually...we will know WHY. But for now I trust and wait...

I totally understand! I get asked all the time, "why don't you go..." "have you thought about doing..." It gets old. I know we are doing exactly what the Lord wants us to do right now. Doesn't make it easier, but it's what we will do. Hope you are doing okay. My kids are back in school in 2 weeks, we should meet for lunch!

((hugs)) friend. I know it's SO hard but please know that one day when you hold your daughter in your arms for the very first time you'll know that you'd start the wait all over again just for HER!! God is preparing a special baby girl for you....and she will be AMAZING!!
