DTC BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Comforting to know SOMEONE is hugging him.
We received updated photos of our precious one today. He has grown so much. I love that he had more hair in these pictures and he is SMILING....his last update he was very unhappy and looked sullen at best. These are sweet boy summer pictures. They were taken last weekend. No new measurements but he looks to be on track for a normal sized 2 yr old boy.
One more time for good measure.
This was our faces after watching the opening ceremonies of these.....
I love how the Chinese people really showed us what they are made of.
I love how the USA looked in their cutie uniforms.
Can't wait to see what the next 2 1/2 wks hold. I am somewhat of an Olympic groupie. I don't sleep alot during the summer/winter games. I love to watch the obscure sports like curling (winter) and ping pong (summer). Just my luck those things are shown at 3 am....those might have to wait for reruns on some obscure cable channel. I love the spirit of the athletes and I guess I love to watch the wonder that is Michael Phelps.....how cute is that one??
Back in two weeks...hopefully our camera will be fixed by then.
Hannah found Pearl in her favorite sun spot. She had peacefully gone to doggy heaven. Hannah will miss her terribly. Pearl was her constant companion and faithful protector. She loved to play and would enjoy walks in our neighborhood. She will be missed, but we know she is playing with her friends in doggy heaven. I am sorry Hannah had to find her, that isn't easy when you are an adult....much less a 12 yr old.
Every call has a beginning. A quiet moment when God whispers a promise to a mother’s heart . A holy place where a father bows and faithfully accepts the journey set before him. A miraculous morning that unexpectedly dawns… Casting its first light on a chosen threshold. A gentle knock..a closed door opens, a sacred invitation sent by the Father.. leads to the other side of the world. Where lonely hearts stare out orphanage windows praying for someone to care.. and then one morning, on an ordinary day an orphan’s life changes... God sends them a second chance...Through you..

We are a family now, a whole,of which you are a part,and you are just as much our child as any in our heart. We do not love you differently,nor would we give up less of all that life has given us to bring you happiness.There is no limit to our love,no boundary you might cross,no price you may be asked to pay,no need to fear its loss. We are now one, the five of us,windows of one home. As long as we have life and breath,You’ll never be alone.~Nicholas Gordon
