We are amazed at how much she has grown and adapted since arriving home...she has a 40+ word vocabulary and for the past week has been going potty 3-4 times a day on her big girl seat! She loves to get into her brother's toys, the cabinets...pretty much anything new that pulls at her curiosity. </div>
<br />
We went to the zoo and she loved the "animals", she didn't want to learn the word zoo or lion...instead she learned to say giraffe and animals. I think she thinks she is just as grown up as her brothers!<br />

For months she would scream when I tried to take pictures, but now she smiles and poses for the camera. She loves the water and runs straight into the pool in over her head and when we at arms length grab her and tell her to kick, she just laughs and claps....let's just say I am a bundle of nerves when we head to the pool. My boys were terrified to get water on their head and she just wants to dive right under!</div>

We had a fun adventure at the airport welcoming buddy Miles home and meeting Bates & Aiden. Of course our sweet girl just wanted "downnnnn" so she could explore and run around!<br />

She has quickly learned to say no and has went from eating everything in sight to taking the lead from her big brother and if she doesn't like something will shake her head "no" followed by a "yuck". She will put on Momma's shoes, jackets, socks, whatever she can find. It is not uncommon to see her packing around Hotwheels or a Nerf gun...in hot pursuit of her big brothers.<br />

She loves for me to sing "Rock a bye Baby" and will laugh and giggle..she runs to get her babies and sings "rock a bye" to them and rocks them...such a loving girl. She likes to sing and dance and now runs to the Nursery at church...during puppets she always jumps up to sing and dance!<br />

Life is crazy busy with three littles in the house...especially with two under five that love Mommy's attention. However, no matter how hectic life becomes, we absolutely wouldn't trade these moments with our kiddos for anything in the world! We are so blessed!</div>

Each day brings progress as you see hints of their personality emerge. Often your child will initially be solemn and guarded in their interactions.<br />
<br />
Many friends have spoken of the "light switch" moment, when their child finally let go of their hesitance and smiles, giggles, and laughter emerge...well you could say our greatest Christmas present this year was our "light switch" moment.<br />
<br />
It was something as simple as a pair of socks from her Korean grandma to bring on the best belly laughter we've heard from her...<br />

There are several reasons...one being how much I loved my last post...it was just right for the time. The other reason surrounds going from a family of two kids to three kids...life is crazy busy and we have had a sick clan on and off for a month now...we are all now mostly on the mend and hoping to be healthy going into the new year.<br />
<br />
Updates on our girl:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>She now has 8 teeth, 4 on top and 4 on bottom</li>
<li>She loves to eat and only cries tears when she can't have another cookie or has to wait til lunch or dinner instead of snacking away</li>
<li>She loves her brothers and likes to be in the middle of everything they're doing</li>
<li>Sadly she is no longer using Korean words, but is now using many English words</li>
<ul>
<li>Momma</li>
<li>Dada</li>
<li>Butter (Brother)</li>
<li>I-yah (Isaiah)</li>
<li>Bottle or baba</li>
<li>Ball</li>
<li>Puppy</li>
<li>Pup (Cup)</li>
<li>Juice</li>
<li>Hello</li>
<li>Hi-ya</li>
<li>and her newest word tonight - Jesus</li>
</ul>
<li>She can have quite a temper and melt your heart all at the same time</li>
<li>She melts into us when we pick her up for a hug</li>
<li>She loves Patty-cake, itsy-bitsy spider, and ride-a-horsey</li>
<li>We see more smiles and giggles as the weeks pass at home</li>
<li>She still hugs her FF picture when we show it to her and listens closely when we play the recorded message from them</li>
<li>Our girl now loves a pacifier...especially at bedtime</li>
<li>She has completed our family and we are so blessed to have her home</li>
</ul>
<br />
Our two boys have also been busy, growing and changing...<br />
<br />
Ethan just finished up the first half of fourth grade and is doing great! He is such a smart boy and loves to read! He also just submitted a book through a publishing program with the school to publish his story on "My Trip to Korea". He did such a wonderful job documenting our trip and I can't wait to share it once we have a copy home!<br />
<br />
Isaiah has transitioned from baby to boy before our eyes. He has finally lost his baby fat and this is the stage that just breaks my heart. Don't get me wrong...I love to see my kids grow and thrive..but I don't cry the day they start school, instead for me it is the time I see that change to growing out of "Mommy's Baby". <br />
<br />
I have returned to work, which is going well, however, this time it was hard to return. Not because I don't want to work, because I need to be busy and like to be out accomplishing things, but I have been in my current job 5 years and I am having a hard time finding the zeal I had 5 years ago. I am hoping the 11 day break that starts tomorrow will be enough time to put some inspiration into my worklife!<br />
<br />
We have our 2nd post placement visit on January 11th. It is hard to believe we have been home for almost three months! Life is finally beginning to settle into our new normal and we enjoy each day learning about each other and growing closer as a family.<br />
<br />
Now for what you are really waiting for...PICTURES:<br />

We are truly so blessed and my friends, my sisters have been so loving and supportive!<br />
<br />
One of my friends started the adoption process after us and she has been so supportive, encouraging, and interested in our process. We have had such a good time sharing our journeys. Well, yesterday and today we have found that our journeys will forever be entertwined!<br />
<br />
My friend and I talked yesterday and I asked about if they had received a referral or heard from her agency and she said no, not a word, but hopefully she would get some anticipated paperwork in the mail that day. Well, I got a call later and in fact she received the mail she was waiting on and guess what...a referral call too!<br />
<br />Now I can't give details, because it is still in the very early stages and if you by chance know this person...please do not post any responses that identify her or the family...I want their referral anouncement to be identified by them with all of the details!!!<br />
<br />
Anyway, today I received a call...not only is this the perfect child for their family...here is the GOD thing...when Ethan and I were in Korea, we are 99.9999% sure we held her baby and played with the baby and took lots of pictures...so GOD led us to this child, before any of us knew and allowed us to love on this sweet child. How awesome is that?!?!?!?!?!?<br />
<br />
God is just too awesome for words sometimes...I keep wondering how much more amazing this journey can be and God keeps showing up and saying, I'll show you!<br />
<br />
<br />
As for an update on our family...Ethan is back to school and has just continued life as normal, no issues transitioning to an older brother of two now...Isaiah is doing better but still is crying for me alot...naptime and bedtime are the worst, although tonight is the first night since I got home that he did not have an all out fit! <br />
<br />
However, he loves his sister and is always by her side:<br />

Annalee continues to adjust and is soooo smart and learning sooo much. <br />
<ul>
<li>She was taking 5-10 steps without holding on when we received her, now she is walking all through the house and will stop, squat & pick up a toy, then stand and continue walking! </li>
<li>She has a hot temper when she doesn't get what she wants and has learned how to take the outlet covers out if we look away for a few seconds, so we have to really keep an eye on her. </li>
<li>We also have learned that if she needs to have a BM she will go to her pack-n-play and put her arms up to be put in....too funny that she likes her privacy of the pack-n-play to do her business!</li>
<li>Yesterday she had a really hard grieving spell...I don't think I can ever see her grieve without grieving with her. We had been to the Korean market and my work, both places people spoke to her in Korean, we had walked with her in the carrier for the first time in a few days, and we fixed her rice for dinner...I'm not sure what triggered it, but it carried a bit into today. We kept things pretty secure/calm today to try to help soothe her.</li>
<li>She is cutting at least one new tooth, maybe more.</li>
<li>We went through her items from Korea today and found that the recorded book we sent for her was retaped by the Foster Family! They say..."Hello Mommy, Hello Daddy, I love you! Thank you Mommy! Bye!" They also say several things in Korean...what a treasure for her and us...I am thankful we recorded the original with my cell phone and will record this too, so she can always have both recordings!</li>
</ul>
Now for some cute pictures<br />

Don't get me wrong he is very good to his sister and very protective, but the whiny..."Momma hold me, Momma I love you" chorus has been a repetitive sound since we came home. My bet is these two will be thick as theives before too long at all!</div>

He also agreed that there is no biologic reason for her to not be sleeping through the night, and if she did wake up to make night time wakings super boring, so she wouldn't want to wake up every night for play time! </div>

Well mommy had already decided that day that we were sleeping the days away, so drastic changes were in order. Let's just say there was a ton of prayer that our plan would work with minimal damage to our bonding that was going great!!!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So the plan was this...no more than two 1 hour naps during the day, keep her up until 10pm and up no later than 8am. Well, the first day she took about an hour and a half nap and by 8:45pm was done, finished, not enjoying our plan and ready for sleep. Well, although there was much crying involved she stayed awake until 9:30pm and then down for the night...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_f-pdd5YGUNo/TMJdfkGv_lI/AAAAAAAAC3k/IcL-YBCZhbk/s1600/Annalee's+Homecoming+146.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" nx="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_f-pdd5YGUNo/TMJdfkGv_lI/AAAAAAAAC3k/IcL-YBCZhbk/s320/Annalee's+Homecoming+146.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
However, she was awake at 2:30am...UGH! Mommy was not happy...baby was not happy, so we got a bottle and hit the mattress in her room. She refused the bottle, but did sleep next to me on and off, until she took the bottle sometime in the wee hours of the morning...another sleep til noon day for mom.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Daddy woke her before 8am and the next day of sleep training began. Day two...1.5 hours in naps, great feedings, very cranky baby...leading to an all out cry fest again before bedtime...at which time I totally began to wonder if I was destroying every bit of bonding and attachment we had built and feeling a bit like the meanest mommy in the world!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
However, the next morning when we all woke at 7:00 am after 9.5 hours of sleep and a happy, not crying girl...I was soooo happy! Today has been wonderful...we are all well rested...Annalee has been a joy. In fact while Dad and little Oppa took a nap, we were having mom & daughter play time. I will kiss her chubby little cheeks and say, "Oh, I love kisses from my girl." I said give Mommay a kiss and she planted a big, sloppy baby drool kiss on me!!! Be still my heart! I actually woke up the boys in my woohoos of excitement!!!!</div>

All are in bed and I am praying and hoping we have another super night of sleep. We are so thankful that the structure we are providing seems to be facilitating the bonding and attachment versus damaging it! God sure has blessed us beyond measure!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688219106678192817.post-60665195272346975982010-10-19T21:35:00.001-05:002010-10-19T21:36:20.635-05:00Settling InWe have been home for a few days now, Ethan is back in school and life is somewhat returning to normal. Annalee is not grieving much at all, but she is on Korea time. We are taking her outside to play, which she absolutely loves and trying to keep her up as much as we can during the day.<br />
<br />
Thankfully, hubby and I are both home, so I take the night shift, then he gets up around 6:45 to get Ethan ready for school. After he returns he takes over with Annalee and I transfer from the mattress in her bedroom floor to my bed. She is napping and sleeping in the crib, however, by 2:30am I am tired, so we just play then sleep on the mattress once she tires out. We figure it will take a couple of weeks to get over the jet lag. <br />
<br />
The boys are also settling in...Sunday was the culmination of mayhem!!! We teach Sunday School, so hubby had to leave ahead of us. Isaiah had missed me while I was gone and is a huge mamma's boy, so he spent most of the day hanging on my leg or in my lap whining hold me mamma. Annalee was fussing to be held. We were trying to go to church and this was my panic moment of "oh three kids are so much more demanding than two self-sufficient boys...what was I thinking!" <br />
<br />
I think the emotional exhaustion of this entire journey was finally soaking in. It is so much to process that happened in a 4-5 day period and so many moments that you are still trying to devour in your memory so as not to forget. Monday and Tuesday have been so much smoother and I have realized it will take time for us all to adjust and really there is no hurry we have the rest of our lives!<br />
<br />
Tomorrow we will go see Dr. Toms our family doctor and hope she doesn't scream at the sight of him. She screamed in Korea when we walked into the Dr.'s office! With Isaiah, he had to take the RSV prevention shots (Synagus), so our Dr. would take off his Dr.'s coat and try to sneak in, but Isaiah still went ballistic! Oh well, that may take time too, but hopefully she will like him and she seems perfectly healthy, so we are praying for an uneventful visit! :)<br />
<br />
Annalee is having fun getting to know daddy and the boys....crawling through the house and playing with her toys...one of her favorites is a little doll. Also, she wants to eat what we eat, so tonight we put her up to the table for her first "meal" with the family! She enjoyed the green beans, peas, and potatoes. Of course at the end of the day, she loves a bottle with daddy! Enjoy the pictures!<br />

She was amazing, such an easy going baby. Also, our amazing family came to the airport at midnight to greet us! As soon as we caught sight of them at the security gate, tears started flowing..it was a beautiful and sweet reunion!<br />
<br />
The first night was really tough. She cried for her foster mother...knowing how much she was loved just overwhelmed my heart. Annalee, Ethan, and I all just had a great big cry that first night. She has had several moments since then, mainly during the times that would be reserved for her foster mother...bedtime, bottle at night, etc. She calls me O-mma (very sternly said) and when she cries for her foster mother it is a very soft (u-mma-mma). Precious little girl!<br />
The foster family has blessed us so much. They sent five albums of pictures, a picture of the entire family with Annalee at the daughter's wedding, hospital pictures of her, handprints, footprints, and after receiving the care package everyday they would play our recorded book with our voices and she would show her our picture album and say, "Omma (momma), Appa (daddy), and Oppa (older brother) as she would point to our pictures.<br />
<br />
She is very shy and when people on the plane would speak to her in Korean and try to see if she would come to them, she would say "O-mma" and snuggle her face into my chest. Several were amazed that she was calling me O-mma and commented on how smart she was to already know her Omma. <br />
<br />
To look into her eyes is the most amazing feeling, she just gazes with this look of curiousity trying to view my soul and all that my heart holds for her. She loves her Oppas...she crawls behind them in the house and when she doesn't see them she calls for them. Isaiah is such a trooper, he is such a mamma's boy, and missed me so much, then I can't hold him when holding her and he has patiently waited for moments when we can snuggle. I think he will be as thick as theives with his little sister and although she is three years younger, she is already almost to his shoulders tall! This experience has made me so proud of my children and the love and bravery they have through change.<br />
<br />
Annalee has taken her time getting to know her daddy. This morning I had to shower and she screamed. Daddy had to bring her to the bathroom and stand by the shower, so that she could see me and still she cried for O-mma until I was dressed and could put her in the "pouch". However, later in the day she went to him for a few minutes at first, to staying with him at the van, while I took a break at the rest-stop, no tears after this morning. She still wants Omma to feed her, but she has taken to him quickly. Tonight when we got home he was carrying her through the house and she said..."Appa, appa, appa". It will be no time until she is a complete Daddy's girl! Be still my heart!<br />
<br />
Right now my entire family are in their respective beds sleeping. Annalee is in her crib and went down with no tears. She slept many hours today, so we will see if she sleeps through the night or not. <br />
<br />
Thank you all for your prayers, loving comments, encouragement, and support! We are so blessed and thankful that God has chosen this path for our lives!<br />
<br />
Now for what you have all been waiting for:<br />

The best burgers in the world by Uncle Joe! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He was so nice & told us that they could not get dill pickles here, so the burgers have sweet pickles. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We told him we had lots of burgers, but the best two we've ever had were the freedom burger at Ms. Elaines and The Joe at Joes! He was very happy with the compliment and very fluent in English...it was such a nice time. Ethan told him we would have to eat lunch there everyday and he said no...burgers are good, but you can't eat them everyday it wouldn't be healthy, but please come back 1 more time before you leave!</div>

The open market behind our hotel. We walked many, many blocks...cars drive right down the middle, so you have to be careful. We found a few neat things and may have to go back for a few things tomorrow!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ethan bought a really nice watch (although a bit big on his arm) for 5,000 won, that is less than $5 US dollars as $1 exchanged for $1, 038 won. He also got a tiny LED blue keychain light, so he was really happy!</div>

Ethan carrying the rest of his Joe's Bacon Burger and eating Turkish ice cream. It was really weird it tasted chocolate and vanilla, but when you bit into it, it was stringy kind of like gum or taffy, but cold and melty like ice cream. They guy would do a show and when he handed it to you would flip the cone around, then when you would try to grab it he would drop and catch it before handing it to you. He was wearing a vest like you see on circus monkeys playing the accordian in pictures, if you know what we mean! </div>

Also, good news - while napping I heard a bell sound in the room. After a couple of times I heard someone at our door. The hotel person had our big suitcase!!!! Yeah...now I can wear makeup and we have the gifts and donations we brought with us for Holt! Very relieved!</div>

We took about a 4-5 hour nap...now we are going to eat dinner and then sleep tonight. Tomorrow morning we go on the City Tour of the Palaces in Seoul and then we are going to try to find one of the markets to do some shopping.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Please pray for me...we are both doing great with our allergies and my back, but my feet/ankles and hands staying swollen. There must be alot of salt in the food and staying on my feet for about 48 hours has not helped. Pray that the swelling will subside overnight, because the city tour tomorrow is mostly walking!!!</div>

I'm at home wondering if they are sleeping or looking out the window playing I spy? I would if I was there. I am so happy for them both to have this experience of a life time. I told Ellen that I was fine without going but you I'm a little jealous, maybe! I just want to meet our little girl Gods had in his plans for so long....</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Knowing that all this is about to happen I wonder if God breaths a sigh of relief for us...cause he's known for ever, man that's DEEP! Thanks for listening to me rant, keep the prayers coming, Thanks</span></em></strong>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688219106678192817.post-47905167419470971022010-10-06T21:18:00.000-05:002010-10-06T21:18:24.875-05:00KOREA BOUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!This morning I was determined to not call DC to check on the status of Annalee's Visa. As I prepared to leave for work, I decided to check my email and saw that another family also waiting for Visa had their son's issued today...so I just had to call.<br />
<br />
Eric in DC answered the phone and after less than a minute he said her issue was issued today!!!! Woohoo!!! I told him he had just made a mommy very happy and he said, well I guess I should congratulate you, huh, Well Congratulations! In the most laid back tone ever!<br />
<br />
So, I decided to head to work since my friend Rachel had Visa issued last Wednesday and received her Travel Call on Friday. I was in my second of three meetings and it had just started when I received a text from my husband to call him right away...I sent a text back saying "Lisa called didn't she, what did she say?"<br />
<br />
He indicated yes, but it was way too much to text. Let me just tell you that meeting went on forever!!! An hour or more later the meeting finally started to break up and I told them I had to go....my hubby let me know that Lisa needed my travel booked today if we wanted to leave within 48 hours! <br />
<br />
Last night there were no hotels in our price range that we could find and flights were higher than last week...so I had actually emailed to see what it would entail to switch from travel to escort. However, they gave us the name of this awesome guy named Erle that is a legend in booking adoption travel. <br />
<br />
Between meetings I called Erle just to see what it would entail to use their services. He asked where we lived. I told him I wanted to fly out of Airport A and was planning to take my 10 year old son, but with what I had seen it would probably just be me. Well, Airport A was booked...no flights on the 8th or 9th. So, he asked for another airport. I told him our family is near Airport B and would love to have us fly in there. <br />
<br />
Within less than 30 minutes not only did he have tickets for me, our son, and our girl to fly out of & into Airport B, but also a hotel within walking distance of our agency and at a great discounted rate. Needless to say his service were well worth the minimal fee they charged! We are leaving for Seoul Friday and after a long 9 hour lay-over in Chicago, we should arrive in Seoul Sunday morning. We are still waiting tomorrow to find out if we will meet Annalee on Monday or Tuesday before returning home on Wednesday night.<br />
<br />
I can't believe this day is finally here! Now I have to go pack and start getting all my documentation done to wrap up my last day of work tomorrow before adoption leave!!!! Yeah!!!! Praise the Lord for guiding us and making clear our path on this journey!!!!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688219106678192817.post-16597964318127597192010-10-06T08:11:00.002-05:002010-10-06T08:11:42.611-05:00WE HAVE VISA!!!!!Annalee's Visa was issued today!!!!! Now all we need is out Travel Call!!!!<br />

<br />
Please continue to pray for us as we wait for her Visa to be issued. We know it is in process and once it is issued we will receive our Travel Call within a few days after.<br />
<br />
Another prayer request is...we originally had planned to have Annalee escorted to us, then our agency had a policy change requiring travel. Now due to unexpected circumstances we may end up having to escort, so please pray as we plan for our Travel Call that we will make a wise decision on what we should do and that we will have peace with that decision.<br />
<br />
Thanks!!!! Have a blessed week!<br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688219106678192817.post-84867783546974250382010-09-29T00:17:00.000-05:002010-09-29T00:17:43.958-05:00Visa PhysicalTonight is Wednesday in Korea, so our girl is preparing to go or returning from her Visa Physical. Since we have everything else done I am predicting we may get "The Call" next week, however, I know it could be another two or three weeks if things run long.<br />
<br />
So tomorrow I will throw open the suitcase in her room and begin to pack and make lists of everything we need to take. I need to finish knitting the scarf for the Foster Father. Then there are the letters to the Birth Mother and Foster Mother that I need to write....the list goes on and on and I am so thankful because this will keep me busy!<br />

Have a blessed Wednesday!!!!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688219106678192817.post-74443872674783706592010-09-20T20:51:00.000-05:002010-09-20T20:51:02.695-05:00Twinkle, Twinkle Little StarLast night was the first night of revival at our church. Since I usually work in the nursery on Sunday nights I volunteered to stay and help out the parents and teen girls from other churches that had volunteered to come and work the nursery for us during revival. <br />
<br />
Well, I moved from room to room, helping out and specifically holding the inconsolable ones that just wanted a familiar face. The first child cried and gagged herself until she puked, luckily this probably wasn't the first time, because she leaned over the sink and neither of us ended up wearing it! I can't tell you how happy this made me...I do not do puke at my house...thankfully I have a hubby that jumps in and takes care of the awful task!<br />
<br />
The next little one I have never seen cry. She is a sweet little girl that was adopted just this past year, along with her brother...they are 5 months apart, both domestic adoptions. She just melted on my shoulder and wanted to hold the plastic and woolly lambs on the counter...our nursery ministry is called, "little flock"...or something lamby like that. She was just a doll, but if I put her down the tears would flow!<br />
<br />
In between this and the other children, my 3, almost 4 year old had decided he is now the baby again until Sissy comes home and would howl and cry if I walked out of eyesight! Good times!<br />
<br />
About twenty minutes before the service was over there was a baby screeching at the top of her lungs! Poor thing, she was inconsolable. So, I offered to take her and see what I could do...I traded the sweet girl melted onto my shoulder for this little baby under a year old. Her bib was wet, she was crying so hard her face to her feet were red, and nothing was calming her.<br />
<br />
I walked to a rocker, took of the bib, and began to fan her with a book while singing/croaking out "Twinkle, twinkle little star"... I have had a sinus infection for a week, so my voice had that in and out quality and a slight crack and croak...poor people that were helping and had to listen! Agh! She slowly began to calm, however, if I tried to sing anything else "Jesus Loves Me", etc. she would begin to get upset again.<br />
<br />
So I sang "Twinkle, Twinkle" over and over again until she fell asleep. I looked at my friend and said, "Oh my what am I going to do?"<br />
<br />
She was completely confused and asked what I had her asleep. I urgently said, "What if Annalee does this all the way home from Korea, 16 hours or so?" "What do I do?"<br />
<br />
She smiled and asked if I had started praying for a calm child....well, not that specifically, so I guess I should get right on that, huh! I know if need be I can handle a puking, screeching child for a while...God's grace will be sufficient, however, I will admit I am definitely praying for a happy, sleeping baby for most of the trip home!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688219106678192817.post-86215114311864953502010-09-14T14:38:00.000-05:002010-09-14T14:38:31.228-05:00Time for RestWe survived!!! Not without our battle wounds, but we did survive the week! <br />
The appraiser came today to look at the house and we should know the results of his report tomorrow. It took all of 15 minutes for him to glance around and take some measurements. I think we were both kind of like, "is that it?"...after 3+ days of intense house projects.<br />
<br />
I will have to post some pictures, but basically we built handrails for our basement steps, painted the living room ceiling, installed door frames into three interior doorways, installed baseboards and quarter round, cleaned out the gutters, mowed and trimmed the yard, etc. Needless to say we spent every waking minute working, but it was so worth it. The steps were definitely the biggest project and they turned out great.<br />
<br />The good thing was to see how well we worked together. It is amazing 11 years into our marriage at how easily we worked together. I am sure 10 or even 5 years ago we would have probably gotten on each other's nerves and instead of discussing the ways to renovate, we probably would have battled out to get our way. I am so thankful for the growth in our marriage and that I have a wonderful partner to work with!<br />
<br />
Our oldest turned in his bug project for school and earned his 5 points that were needed for his AR (Advanced Reading) course! We are so glad to have these complete and look forward to meeting with his teacher next week for parent teacher conferences! I can't believe we are almost finished with the first semester of school. His interim grades were really good....we are so proud of him!<br />
<br />
Now regarding the adoption:<br />
<br />
We were notified last week that Annalee's Visa Physical will be on 09/29. (Korea offices are closed next week for a holiday to celebrate families and the ancestor's of each family. I love learning the heritage of the Korean culture...it is so rich and full of respect!) After her Visa Physical, then she will be ready to have her Visa issued. I am still thinking we will travel to Korea the week of fall break (Oct. 11th)<br />
<br />
Also, we received a new Well Baby Check today. Our girl is now 25 lbs at 10 months old (Cute and Big Baby) and has 1 top tooth in addition to two bottom teeth. She is standing alone, waves Bye-Bye, and plays ball. She is doing so well and we can't wait to see her and hold her in our arms!!! Very soon!!<br />
<br />
Have a very blessed week!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688219106678192817.post-6403081468704383582010-09-09T22:12:00.000-05:002010-09-09T22:12:49.277-05:00EP Approval!!!!Today we received one of the emails we have been waiting for a few weeks now. We received the news that the Emigration Permit (EP) has been approved, which is one more step in the process. <br />
<br />
So what exactly does EP approval mean?<br />
<br />
Well, it is a huge step to our girl coming home and many families receive their Travel Call (TC) within 30 days or less from EP approval. This means in one month, which would be my sister's birthday, I could be getting that wonderful call. Although I sure won't complain if it arrives sooner!<br />
<br />
You may be wondering why we have to still wait another 30 days to go get our girl. Well, first I have to say that we are extremely blessed and have been zooming right along on this way to TC. Also, a very good on-line friend of mine, received her referral just days from ours, our girls were born the same day, and our timelines match almost perfect now, so we could be in Korea together. Lastly, if we actually do travel in one month, it will be the beginning of our oldest son's fall break from school, so he will not have to miss as much time away as he would if we received the call earlier or later!<br />
<br />
Isn't God amazing in how He orchestrates all of these little details!<br />
<br />
So back to why we may need to wait 30 more days. After EP approval, the Korean Government must issue the Travel Certificate (est. time 1 week), then she will have her Visa Physical, then the Packet 3 (P3) with all of the important approvals will be sent to the US Embassy in Korea for approval (est. time 1 week). After all of these things are done, then they will schedule the Visa Interview and Annalee's Foster Mother will take her to the interview...I wonder if she (Annalee) will have much to say?<br />
<br />
After the Visa Interview the Visa will be issued and we will receive our TRAVEL CALL!<br />
<br />
That is 30 days full of approvals and papers...so I must begin to write my checklists...what to ask her Foster Mother, what to pack, figure out what to write in the letters to Annalee's Birth Mother and Foster Parents...it will be a very busy 30 days!<br />
<br />
Have a blessed weekend!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688219106678192817.post-87013811711854082012010-09-08T00:50:00.000-05:002010-09-08T00:50:29.859-05:00Passing the TimeAt least once a day I get asked when our girl is coming home, are the boys excited about getting a new sister, and am I so excited in anticipation of "the call"...the answers are:<br />
<br />
"As soon as possible I hope"<br />
<br />
"They can't wait...my youngest asks everyday when I return from work, Mommy, did you go get Annalee today?"<br />
<br />
"Words cannot describe the feeling you have anticipating that call and the moment our girl will be in our arms!"<br />
<br />
Today there was a discussion regarding the Emigration Permit (EP) and the process wait time for approval. Our friend, who is waiting for her sweet boy Charlie, just received her approval at 9 weeks waiting, so I calculated where we are and on Thursday we will be 8 weeks into our wait for EP approval. So now I am very hopeful we will receive an email notice this week or next letting us know we have approval.<br />
<br />
The significance of this approval is that most people travel within 30 days or less after their EP approval! We are getting ever so close to that call!<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, we can never just wait twiddling our thumbs, so as if life wasn't eventful enough we talked to our bank a few weeks ago and learned now was the perfect time to refinance our mortgage. We have been checking into a refinance for a couple of years now and the rate was just too great to pass up. However, we have many "mini" renovations started, part of the reason we had put off refinancing until now.<br />
<br />So, my sweet hubby has an ever-growing honey-do list and we are becoming premier customers at our local Lowe's. Now for the fun part...the bank would like to do the appraisal ASAP, so we can close on the loan before our trip to Korea, so our goal is to have all of these projects complete by Monday morning. Well, one blessing is I now have something else to obsess about, rather than whether or not I have updated pics of our girl or if we have EP approval! <br />
<br />
So this leads to a couple of prayer requests:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>Please pray we will have the endurance and time management to complete all of the tasks needed before the appraisal.</li>
<li>Pray that the house will appraise for the target amount, so that we can have the PLI removed from the loan. </li>
</ol>
God has so richly blessed us with the ability to work and with opportunities to stretch each dollar He provides and we are so grateful. We are also very thankful for the distraction during what could be a very trying time in the wait. <br />
<br />
Have a great week!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688219106678192817.post-14809633139403382572010-09-04T08:26:00.000-05:002010-09-04T08:26:30.391-05:00HAPPY LABOR DAY!!!!We hope that each of you will have a very blessed weekend whether it is leisure time with family and friends or laboring over home projects. Enjoy the beautiful weather and be a blessing to someone!<br />
<br />
This morning my flip calendar held the following blessing for us:<br />
<br />
Isaiah 30:18 (NKJV)<br />
<br />
"Therefore the LORD will wait, that He may be graciousto you; And therefore He will be exalted, that he may have mercy on you. For the LORD <em>is</em> a God of justice; Blessed <em>are</em> all those who wait for Him."<br />
<br />
It is amazing when you are waiting for something, praying daily for the ability to continue faithfully, that He sends just wait you need for grace sufficient!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6688219106678192817.post-11333155275728790272010-09-02T23:35:00.000-05:002010-09-02T23:35:26.474-05:00Adoption: Calling or Just a Choice?Today I was involved in an on-line discussion of sorts regarding the things that people say to adoptive parents that indicate they just don't get it....the person that started the conversation had posted the following quote to FB:<br />
<br />
""Natural Child: Any child who is not artificial. ...Real Parent: Any parent who is not imaginary. Your Own Child: Any child who is not someone else's child. Adopted Child: A natural child, with a real parent, who is all my own.--- Rita Laws, PhD" <br />
<br />
A person that read the quote left her a response that they admire adoptive parents for taking in someone else's kid!<br />
<br />
Various people chimed in, but the following comments led to my blog-post title above:<br />
<br />
Person 1:<br />
<br />
"At this point in the process, what I find annoying (well-intended, I realize, but still annoying) are comments like, "Charlie is so lucky" or "It's so nice of you guys to do this." Things like that. He is not lucky; WE are. He is the one losing something, not us. We are NOT adopting to be NICE!! We are adopting because we WANT a child. Ugh."<br />
<br />
Person 2<br />
<br />
<br />
"I absolutely agree. However, and unfortunately, I think a lot of adoptive parents propagate this type of thought when they themselves cite their reasons for adoption as religious obligations to orphans: adoption because of charity. Yes, they WANT this child badly, but they also use additional reasons to describe their adoption choices, and unfortunately, I believe that puts a negative spin on adoptees, like they were some charity project. Put yourself in the child's shoes. I don't want my kids thinking that it would have to take an act of charity to adopt them, as if they were unworthy of love otherwise. Obviously adoptive parents don't believe that, but many of them spread around the very ideas that later offend them and demean their children. When my child asks me one day why we adopted her, I'm going to tell her it's because we wanted her so badly and loved her so much. Not because it was my Christian obligation. Not because God told me to. Not because it was charitable. Not because she was needy. Because I loved her. The same reason I tell others, and nothing more. Any other motive demeans her, in my opinion."<br />
<br />
Person 3:<br />
<br />
"Thank you for adding this. I am a Christian but I am not that Christian who adopted because God told me to or to bring another child to the Great Commission. Please don't get your knickers in a twist if the reason you adopted is for the reasons I didn't though. "<br />
<br />
I added some of my personal viewpoints, which led to the below response:<br />
<br />
Person 2:<br />
<br />
"People rarely have to justify themselves when they become pregnant. Nobody asks "What made you decide to become pregnant?" The answer is obvious - they wanted kids. But people ask all the time "What made you decide to adopt?" because it's outside of the norm. When the answer is "Because God called me to adopt," you open the door for people to view the motive to adopt as something very separate than the motive to become pregnant. My bio kids will not grow up hearing what a wonderful person I am for raising them. My adopted kids, on the other hand, will hear this often, and they will internalize how this casts them as a burden in my life rather than a joy. I don't want them thinking that, and while I will tell them constantly that I love them, the world will tell them that I love them differently. What a sad thing. I turned to adoption for the same reason I turned to pregnancy. I wanted children. Did I have God's stamp of approval on both? Yes. Now, why would I advertise our motives for adopting as anything different than our motives for pregnancy? Or should I create a blog all about our "call to become pregnant" and ask for donations? I don't read many blogs like that. I wonder how many people would chip in...<br />
<br />
I maintain that a portion of the adoption community digs their own holes when it comes to what annoying things people say to them. If you find it annoying when people say, "You're such a good person for adopting and your child is SO lucky," then never advertise your child as a charity case. You'd be a hypocrite to do so. (Or you can advertise that you're doing this great thing for an orphan, and then gloat when people pat you on the back for it. There's no hypocrisy in that. It's just a little disgusting.) People don't advertise pregnancy as a cause for charity, and nobody treats bio kids that way...." <br />
<br />
So what do you think... <br />
<br />
Is adoption a calling or just a choice? <br />
<br />
Does creating a blog about adoption negatively impact an adopted child? <br />
<br />
What is your view on fund-raising for adoption? <br />
<br />
I am very interested to hear what your thoughts are on this topic, so please chime in..Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1
