A few pictures

Between the cold, the excitement and the exhaustion, we forgot to take pictures of just us. Here are the only ones we have. The last one is with our "blended apple juice."

It is wonderful that you got to meet Bryson this week, and I can't imagine how hard it is to wait to go back. But hopefully it will not take very long in between trips!

I'm glad you shared about your feelings the first day because it helps to prepare those of us still waiting for our referrals. I've heard this from several other people, too. I'm sure you were incredibly exhausted, too! I'm glad things got better with the subsequent visits. I hope you all got some rest this weekend and were able to relax now that you are home!

I cannot wait to talk to you!!!! Do you remember when we talked before you left and I said I had a little anxiety and uncertainess the first visit? Despite a picture, we don't know these children from any other children. I so know those feelings. I think these are feelings often unspoken about but they can be so real. You're fellow adopters were right when they said that's normal. I am glad you are back safely and will add you to my list of people to pray for who get court dates by Chistmas :) Give me a call when you catch your breath.

Sounds like you had a good trip all in all. I love the blended apple juice picture - too funny!! Glad you met your little one and hope you get a court date soon.

I'm so glad to read your posts. Bless your hearts. It's such a crazy, emotional experience. Sounds like you did very well and that Bryson is going to be a great fit for your family! I hope you get back there very soon.

Glad you guys made it home safely. It sounds like you had a great visit and got to know Bryson better. It is an emotional roller coaster for sure! I pray that the wait to go back is not too long.

Cute pictures. I didn't know you had never seen snow before! That must have been shocking all around, new country, language, food, snow and a son to top it all off! :)
