Our Little Boy!

Well what can I say? Our little guy is amazing. God has blessed us again with another amazing gift.


While Jeremy was living in the orphanage he was enrolled with an organziation called Half the Sky Foundation. This organization comes in and works one on one with the kids. They give them the love they need until they are adopted and if they are not going to be adopted they are the closest thing to a really family that they will have. Besides the love that they receive they also play, excercise with them and more. It is a wonderful organization and Jeremy was blessed to be a part of it. If you want to learn more or donate to them you can check out their website. His nanny from Half the Sky made a beautiful memory book for him. It has pictures of him when he was a few months old, of him playing, his first birthday party and many more wonderful moments. The book is written in Chinese and is colored in so beautiful. Can't wait to show you all.


The girls have been so wonderful with him they are going to be the best big sisters. They love him so much and he loves seeing them play he starts laughing and he loves all the kisses and hugs they give him. It is so cute to see him laughing.


Jeremy's little arm does not seem to stop him at all. It is amazing what he can do with his arm. Please pray for him he seems to have a bad cold and cough and a low grade temp. (not that you would ever know it because he is just so happy and does not complain) He also likes to suck and bite on his middle finger and his nail has fallen off. We are putting some antibotic cream on it and hope it will look better as well. He is 22lbs and has some chunky legs so cute you wanted to just eat him up.


What an amazing experience as we walked into the civil affairs office and we all saw our babies sitting there with their nannies. We really did see the face of Jesus at that moment and experience spritual adoption in the flesh. Words just can't express the emotions of that beautiful moment.


What a joy it was to see the other two families that we are with receive their beautiful baby girls. I am so thrilled for them. One of the little girls is a month older than Jeremy and was in the same orphanage as he was in. In the book that I was telling you about that the nanny made for us, the little girl and Jeremy were in each other pictures they were buddies which is so sweet. I love the way God takes care of every detail.


Well we will be heading to the orphanage today looking forward to seeing where Jeremy spent the first year of his life. We will share more on that tonight. We fly out of Nanjing on Friday to Guangzhou where we will meet up with the other 16 families in our group and meet all of their children. I am so looking forward to that. We will be in Guangzhou until the 13th when we head home!


Love you all and can't wait to see everyone : ) Janet
