Celebrating Twice

16 years + 1 year & countingToday we are celebrating 16 years of marriage. I can't even begin to share how much Jeremy means to me. We've had some hard times but I have to say as long as I'm going through them with him, I'm OK. We have always come out OK. This whole process has been one of those difficult things but we have done it together and I'm so thankful. I love going through life with him. I could probably gush about him until everyone is rolling their eyes and gagging so I won't. I am just truly thankful for the man that God has blessed me with.
Today is not only the anniversary of our marriage, it is also the one year anniversary of our papers being approved in Colombia. So we officially have been "waiting" for our children for one year. We are happy about that. Every day that goes by brings us one day closer to holding them in our arms. We can't wait!In the last couple of months we have had our home study amended, edited and sent in. We have traveled to West Virginia to have our fingerprints done bio metrically again. Not sure why they expire... really doesn't make sense to me, but it had to be done so we did it. So home study is done, finger prints are done, anniversary is here and now we just get to wait again... mostly. I received a letter from homeland security today stating that our home study was missing a couple vital bits of information so we'll have to get that corrected and sent in but really shouldn't be any big deal.

So while I am thankful for every minute... every second I have with Jeremy.... I/we are so looking forward to our precious little children coming home. We thank the Father every day for keeping them safe and well cared for until we can see their sweet little faces. As always, we are so thankful for your prayers, love & support!!!
