It came. Fifty five days of the longest waiting of my life. I'd be lying if I didn't admit to starting to have some doubts. But here it is!
LOA!!! Also, known as the Letter of Acceptance.
He's mine, really, truly mine.
This is a book I bought almost two years ago now when we were still in the domestic foster care program.
Little did I know, right?
We are so, so close to the end. Maybe only 8 weeks until I can finally hold my son.
All we have left is to get our immigration approval, apply for our visa's for China
and then wait for China to issue approval for us to enter their country.
That's it!! Then we get to fly to officially make him a Hurst.
We are also so very close to finishing with our funds.
In order to help push us to the finish line I made this bracelet to sell for only $10!
The verse I have claimed over and over again is Zephaniah 3:17

In the process of our adoption this little boy has grown up...
Into this handsome boy. My heart aches to make that smile come back.
Soon, little man, soon.
Hang on just a little longer!
I have learned a lesson. My God truly is mighty to save.
And He chose to save this one.
My heart overflows.
You are SOOOOO close!!! Simon is going to be SOOOOO happy to meet his mama and baba - God is GOOD!!! I want one of the bracelets...how do I pay you?
