Too Cute

I have a best friend who is the most thoughtful person in the world. She was sweet enough to check on me at work when Little Man turned one. She also bought me the cutest picture frames with the words Little Man actually on it. I cannot wait to get him home in order to put a special picture in it. Thank you Heather for always being there for me.

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy 1st birthday to my sweet little man. Mommy and daddy miss you and wish we could have given you a very special birthday. The pictures we received this week from T were the best yet. You had the best smile I have ever seen. I am sorry you are still there and not home where you should have been months ago. We miss you with all of our hearts and we will make up all of the lost time when you come home. Mommy just wants you to keep holding on and know we are coming for you one day no matter how long they make us wait. We love you, we miss you and we pray for our baby boy. Loves and kisses from afar!!!!

Prayers

Nothing new on the adoption front. The phone conference yielded no new news today and for that I am very frustrated. I miss my little boy and think about every milestone I am missing as he is getting ready to turn 1 in less than 2 weeks. I promised him in July that Mommy would be back soon to bring him home and that has not happened. He is very healthy according to all of the reports that I get and for that I feel blessed. I just miss him and I refuse to give up on him. I know that one of these days he will be coming home.
I ask for prayers as a dear friend of mine has a child who is not doing well. She has not held or seen her baby girl for several months. All she gets are reports and the occasional picture of her sweet girl. I feel for her, I pray for her and I cry for her. That is all that I can do at this point. If things had been different she would be home and gotten the medical care she so desperately needed. Please just keep this precious baby and her family in your prayers.
