This Thanksgiving we had so much to be thankful for. My brother, his wife, and their amazing baby boy came to spend Thanksgiving with us. We had a wonderful time and were grateful for the days to relax together and to play with Baby Owen. We're also so thankful for our supportive friends and family, and for having great jobs that we love going to.
Obviously we were hoping to be thankful for the arrival of a certain beautiful girl, but for that we'll have to continue to wait. On last check in the IBESR has still not signed our paperwork. We know that it will take at least six weeks after it has been signed, which pushes our travel date into January at the earliest. It's been difficult to realize that we'll be celebrating Christmas without her and the waiting gets harder each day. We were happy tonight, however, when we talked to our friend who is also in the Haitian adoption process, who said that we somehow got through the US process much more quickly and easily than he ever has. We're not sure which factor made this happen, but are grateful nonetheless.
We hope you all had a great Thanksgiving as well. Know that we are thankful for each of you, for your support, and for your prayers.
