Baby Referral!

Hello Blogspot! It has been quite a week and between a heavy workload and one of life’s miracles, this is the first opportunity I have had to speak of the week’s incredible events. So here goes; As of Wednesday, September 10, my wife Amy and I are the proud parents of a 4 ½ month old little boy. Simeon Ravi Neon is his name and being the cutest baby on the planet is his game!

The week leading up to the final acceptance is documented perfectly in my wife’s blog, so I won’t even attempt to one up that one. I will just say, there are no words to describe how happy I am or how excited I am to go get him and bring him home. It is still so astounding to me that God can fashion a family together from opposite sides of the world, with no regard to distance.

So, on Friday we received a hefty pile of additional paperwork. Wasting no time, Amy and I began to assess all that was required for completion and over the weekend we were able to get the documents finished and shipped this afternoon. Whew!! That was no doubt the most I have ever signed my name (including signing day for our house purchase). We just about emptied the cartridge of ink in my G2 gel ink pen! But we were just happy to be able to do it!!! We wanted to turn the forms around as quickly as possible and we did it.

More later obviously, but I had to record our excitement and thankfulness to God for His awesome faithfulness. We are now praying for a speedy trip for our paperwork through the finalization process.
