We received a small gift yesterday that we didn't know about until today. 🐼 Our dossier ( adoption documents) are making small steps. We are reviewed!!! It's not the big step we were hoping to get by Christmas but it's a step so we will take it! For my number watching friends We were lid 11/14, and OOT 11/27. (I think I told someone we were lid 11/6 but that was actually DTC. Sorry, I lose track...)

Bless the Children this Christmas day!
We have had an amazing, spoiled rotten, (so spoiled I feel guilty) blessed Christmas. There are times when simply running my hand under warm water I feel guilty.
I think of all the Orphans the world over, and my heart breaks. I wish all children could have what I have.
What my kids have. Even 1/3 of what we have. Bless the little children the world over!
Next year Chu will be 3 years and nine months. And he will have his FIRST Christmas ever! In our world of commercialized Christmas that seems impossible but it's true. Christmas is rarely celebrated in China.
Just to be sure I checked NORAD last night. What is that? It's a Santa tracker app so it has to be correct.
Nope, Santa did not stop in Xuchang.
I know that there are many things our Chu has never experienced. (Like seeing animals,literally eating food other then formula and a bit of Rice, warm water, baths and going outside the sterile hospital like building.)
We can NOT wait to have firsts with him!
I can Not wait to tell him about baby Jesus and the Man Jesus was!
Thank you all for praying him home to us!

9 months!
When you hear or read "nine months" you automatically think baby and pregnant. It could easily be put on a maternity tee shirt. Paper pregnant momma's don't always get a due date. In fact, most of us can relate more to a manatee or camel pregnancy of 13 months.
But I know the waiting will be worth it and just as amazing as giving birth to my biological kids.
Nine months ago today I saw Chu's little face for the first time! It was an incredibly amazing moment!

All I want for Christmas is my boy!
I admit I bawled like a baby when I listened to this song. Next Christmas Chu, you'll be home and an Orphan no more!

OOT
One more thing to be thankful for...Got word today that we are OOT! Bacically, China is finished translating 7 months worth of paper work and they did it in 13 days! Not bad China...not bad.. Please keep it up! We are still waiting on a big official step called LOA. OOT means we're 1/3 of the way to LOA. Please pray we get LOA for Christmas. That's all I want besides my sweet family! ( and for my family to stay healthy, happy, and together!)
