Life has been hopping around here so I'll do a quick update
and hopefully update on some other things later this week...
1. We received our I600 approval (from USCIS) on April 8. YAY!!!
They have now forwarded our info to Kinshasa (city where
Zaine is from in the DRC) and we have begun our 3-6 month wait until travel.
I've struggled with this 3-6 months wait...
I've done relatively well waiting on things up until this point.
I'm ready to get my son NOW!
I ache to hold him and see him interacting with our family.
I've been praying for God to move mountains -
Matthews 17:20 says
He replied, "Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."

2. I've started purchasing a few things for Zaine.
I picked up some matching pjs for Zaine and Xavier
(in different sizes of course) the other day
and it made my mommy heart smile a little bit.
I also picked up a pair of swim trunks for him since we
practically live at Mimi and Pop Pop's pool in the summer.
3. Our house looks like the local Goodwill store right now. We have had over 25 generous families donate things towards our garage sale. Please pray for good weather this Thursday-Saturday. We have SOOOO much stuff and we're praying this makes a little dent in the money needed to finish up this adoption. Can't wait to post pictures of the sale and cool "God stories".
4. Addison had a dream a few nights ago that Zaine came home.
She loves him so much already and cannot wait to have him home.
Let's hope that dream comes true real soon!
