We have completed one more step in this process and only have a million to go yet. We had our homestudy visit yesterday. We are only doing one because it has only been 3 months since our last postplacement visit. I'm happy to have it done and am praying the paperwork will come together without too much difficulty. I want my little boy. Today is really the first day I've had that feeling. The one where part of me is across the world and I just yearn to hold him. IN GODS TIME. In the meantime, I'll work with Ananya and teach Anthony and pray. I will find strength that GOD will lead us through this journey once again. I can't remember the pain from our first adoption. Ananya's smile erases those memories.
Onto other big news. Guess what?
Prasun was standing in his crib in the new pictures. I would never have thought. That is pure and simply GOD taking care of my baby boy.
I'm having a great week. I hope all of you are as well.
Joy, I'm praying for travel soon.
Prasun, I'm coming baby. God will hold your hand until then. I love you sweetie.
