Prayers for Jake

Even when sick Jake is always happy.
Leaving him last night was hard.  It took me three times of bye kisses before I lefted.  Trying to finish up things at home Gary stayed with Jake.
Last night it was hard sleeping without him at home.  I kept waking thinking I heard him calling my name.  One if Jake's favorite words momma and dada.
When I arrived at the hospital Jake was heading for his scope.  Once in recovery only to find out. He will be there another couple of nights.  Tonight we found out his GI Dr stated once again he is not be absorting calories and Jake is basically starving inside.  Jake has been on a feeding pump for years and enzymes have been changed repeatedly.   Some days Jake refuses to eat so he survives iff jis feeding tube feeds.
I love my son ❤.  These pass 6 years it has been filled with giggles and smiles.  But also meds, therapy, chest compressions and endless Dr visits
  I hate Cystic Fibrosis.  It robbed us of knowing his sister Gennie-beane.  But through Gennie we met her brother Jake.  I know our Lord is watching over our sweet Jake as he is holdimg. Gennie till we see her again.
  Praying Jake is released from the hospital before I travel.  We will be hiring a nurse while I am away.  And praying he does well so Gary can meet up with me to help bring Sophia and Damien-Greyson home. 
  Please pray for Jake to grow and gain his strength.  Also for the Dr to try and complete his scope to find out what is best for Jake.
  This has probably been the hardest of all mountains.  I place these worries in our Lord's hands.  May he heal our son.  Please again pray for our Jakey Snakey ❤

Full of emotions today

I am get back to blogging our journey this week and share some photos and our journey. Today I found myself missing our new little ones.  I wonder if they know we are coming back for the both of them.  Many tears as we walked out the door and said our goodbyes. This adoption has been a hard one for many reasons.  Updating documents and not knowing which child we were meant to adopt.  Honestly I just did not know what to expect once we were there. I knew this time deep inside I feel nervous and also excited.  With prior adoptions things felt so much differently than this one.  Maybe because this journey has been also a year in waiting. When we first met Barbara in hopped a little girl full of life and smiles.  As I watched her I noticed she was as nervous as I was.  But shortly we got to know one another.  I knew then inside as she sat across from us that this was our child, our daughter.. I felt inside love for a child I only met for...

USCIS approval and updates

Currently we are gathering up our documents once again times two. So two sets of everything means double the funds again.  Heart breaking to start from the beginning with documents.  But we are steps ahead with our Home study and our USCIS approval.  The USCIS approval is the most important document needed in our Dossier. This has been a very difficult week, yet another little girl passes away yesterday.  My heart cries out again for the parents and family.  After the first little girl and now another it breaks one's heart.  On the 25th of April it will be now 5 years since the death of our daughter Gennie~beane.  I wished I could hold her once again in my arms.  I tell all the children about Gennie and how precious she was.  Katya ask me each night about Gennie and if she is there still in Heaven.  Hard to explain to a child that children do die with out scaring them.  Jake Gennie's biological brother also has Cystic Fibrosis...

Medicals

Medical exam complete but we have to update all blood work, TB test also needs to be updated and also a letter from the American Embassy needs updating.  All documents have been cleared for approval and these last documents will allow our Dossier to be submitted in August.  Normally it takes 2 months for a travel date.  Our plans will be to travel to review Ellie's file and meet with her.  Secure her and file for a court hearing.  We will leave country and return for court, during Court hearing  we will also be allowed to view Clyde's records and file for his Court Date.  Praying we are able to waive the 30 days of waiting for Ellie if not when we return for Clyde's Court Hearing pickup Ellie and apply for Ellie's passport.. During Clyde's court hearing we will apply for the 30 days to be waived. If not we will have to make four trips which we had not planned. This means additional funds for Ellie's and Clyde's adoption  SO far we have not sold ...
