Our dear friends threw us the most amazing shower on Saturday! I only have one picture at the moment but hope to post more on here when I get them. Our sweet friend Elizabeth took on the job of photographer for the evening! :) The night was such an encouragement as so many of our dearest friends were all in the same room at the same time. I said all week that this was going to feel like our wedding all over again but without all the planning. :) Words cannot express how humbled we've been by God's love shown to us by the community God has put around us. The best were the prayers said for us and the girls. Our friends are concerned for the immediate condition of our girls but ultimately for the hope of their eternity with Christ! What a blessing to have wise friends that love us that much! The morning of the shower I sat in our "slowly coming together" nursery and thanked God that He's given us the gift of parenthood and the honor of a baby shower. It was a sweet moment of seeing His faithfulness and Goodness in the hard times and in the times of joy!

On another note, who knew two weeks could feel so long?! We're one week into our wait for our Article 5 pick-up. I'm so thankful God is allowing us to be in this part of the process so early. We could very easily still be waiting on our Letter Seeking Confirmation if He hadn't chose to work a miracle! One week from today our wait for Travel Approval will begin. Whoo Hoo!
You are moving along so quickly!!! And with your current timeline it's VERY likely we could be meeting up in Guangzhou! How awesome would that be?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteWe are so thrilled for you! I can't wait to meet the girls. Love you!
