If I were pregnant with our son I would have had him about now! It has been about 9 months since we started the adoption process. We made the decision to adopt at the end of March (Easter) and signed our agency agreement and began our dossier.
A number of ladies in our church have announced that they are pregnant and due in May and June. I am happy for them but at the same time it saddens me to think that we still won't have our son home by this summer.
I have been thinking about our son alot these days,more than usual, maybe it is because it is Christmas. Our youngest, Cathryn, wanted to buy him a Christmas stocking because they have their stockings hanging. So we did buy him a stocking and it is waiting for him to come home. Our girls keep asking me when he will be with us, it is so hard trying to explain that we are working on it and don't really know when he will be with us. I hope it will be next Christmas, but we aren't even registered yet! We pray for him daily.
This song "lullaby" by Dixie Chicks is dedicated to our son in Bulgaria. I will and do love him forever!

The holidays are hard. I'm feeling it with you. Sometimes I wonder why I feel so sad when I am surrounded by three wonderful kiddos... but then I realize it's because one is missing. This song brought me to tears.
Hang in there. God is so very good. And He is enough. Praying for you and your little guy. Love you!
Merry Christmas Chris and Celeste! We have had no indication from our adoption agency of when we will be registered in Bulgaria. So we just wait...All in God's perfect timing.
blessings,
Mary Ellen
