"What is on your mind" FB shows on status updates... Well Eli & China is what's on my mind as we await our finalized homestudy, so we can send off our I-800 A to USCIS. Praying for speedy process. We're trying Eli, mommy & daddy are trying...
See we have kinda had a hard week emotionally... just the waiting... We are 64 days away from our LID deadline of June 15th. (sigh) I haven't slept well and I have had Eli, and China, and orphans weighing heavy on my mind.
Then I open my email this am and there is a message from a fellow adoptive mom who's daughter is also in Xi'an. She asked if she could send me her daughters 36 pictures of her birthday party in China, that they just got, for us to look through to see if Eli is in any of them...
Can you.. well YES!!! PLEASE DO!!! :-)
Zoe, Levi and I went through the entire first file and no sighting of Eli...
Kinda bummed, but with hope, we opened the next file ...
and there he was!
