Well, it's finally happening: we're going to bring our son to his forever home!!!
Luke & I take off for Chicago next Sunday night and fly to Korea on September 11th, 2017 - a day that will now hold even more solemn commemoration in our hearts. ♡
We arrive the evening of September 12th and pick up our son from the adoption agency the morning of September 13th; his "Gotcha Day!"
Our Visa interview is the following day, at the US Embassy located a block from our hotel.
We have a few days built-in to enjoy Korea with him and get his passport and Visa documents in order, flying back to the States on September 18th. A group of jammering brothers and sisters will be waiting to welcome this little guy!!
The trip is swiftly approaching!! We were given two dates to choose from for our Visa interview. We decided there was wisdom in going with the soonest date, given the political tensions on the Korean peninsula.
It is with great joy and excitement that we make this final monumental step in our adoption!
I read a great quote by David Platt the other day: "We adopt not because we are rescuers. No. We adopt because we were rescued."
Praising Jesus for His Sovereign plan in our lives and in the life of this little one around the world! We will soon introduce him to all of you!!
One of my favorite worship bands, Rend Collective, recently released this song about God being The Rescuer of all of us! In their uniquely eclectic Irish way, they present this music video: enjoy!
