3, 2, 1, BLAST OFF!

As an adopting sister, I have been counting the days since the very beginning. And I'm sure, if you have ever adopted, you understand the feeling. Six months can feel like a year. So even though six months is actually a short time frame for an adoption, it felt like a lifetime of waiting, going through every day of Gabe and Levi's adoption. And since Kole's adoption process has hit it's 7 month mark already, and he's still not home, it's like going through torture. Butttt, the good news is, he will be home really soon! I know we keep saying that, but this time I mean it. My parents are traveling in 3 days!! Which is exciting and exhausting all at the same time. Because we only had nine days from the day we got our DAP appointment date, we (my mom) have been running around like madmen, trying to get all last minute shopping done, packing, and between us just now starting school, that's an extra 10 pounds of weight added to their shoulders. But man is God providing! Just a couple months ago, we were about $6,000 short and it took nothing but a small miracle, a big God, and amazing friends, family, and support to shrink that number. Not only did we shrink it, but we vanished it. Gone. Fully funded.

So, won't you join us in the count down?
