Merrin is 10 months old today! I would be lying if I said this did not make me sad. I cannot believe we have missed the first 10 months with her. It just makes my heart ache but I keep telling myself it will not be much longer until we are together and then we will not miss anything ever again!
We went to Big Joe's and Colleen's tonight and had Chinese food. Colleen bought a cake that said Happy 10 months Merrin, it was so sweet! We also received two precious outfits from them.
Also, yesterday we received an email from my agency stating that all acceptance letters have been received and are being sent to CCAA. CCAA usually issues travel approval's approximately 4 weeks from the time they receive the signed acceptances. Once we have travel approval we can then request the consulate appointment and as soon as we have our confirmed consulate appointment then we can make travel arrangements. Please say some prayers that everything moves along smoothly!
I think any Mom or Dad understands that sadness about being away from their child. You guys will have so much catching up to do! That will probably make your time even more precious. You guys look so happy in the pictures! You deserve it! We love you! Jamie, Gary, Reese, and Brady
ReplyDeleteI am right there with you. Our little girl will be 11 months tomorrow and I can't help but think about how much time we are missing with her, but I know it will not compare to the rest of our lives with her. Just can't wait to be with her! Hang in there...we'll be with our girls very soon!!!
