USCIS Extension Approved....Again!

We're another step and another day closer to our baby girl/s! We received the official form this week from USCIS (Homeland Security) that confirmed our application to adopt has been extended once more! Yay!! This is what the refingerprinting process was for and we are so thankful for yet another major milestone in this journey to our sweetie pie/s. The journey definitely continues, dear friends and family...and the excitement continues to grow! As a friend recently wrote to us, we're "on the downhill side" of the journey now and it's wonderful to realize that we're closer than ever. The majority of the wait should be behind us at this point. Wow!

When will we see our Jenna Elizabeth (JennaBeth)....and maybe our Emma Katherine (EmmaKate)? Only God knows and that's ok with us. For it's all in His hands, His plan and His timing...and we know He will bring our family together at the very best moment He has designed.

So...our dear little sweetheart/s...hold on a wee bit longer. Your Daddy, Mommy, Sister, Brother, family and friends are getting closer to you each day. You remain in our hearts every moment and you are loved soooooooo much! As we close our eyes each night, we think of you. As we sleep each night, we dream of you. As we open our eyes to a new day, we think of you. And as we live each day, we love you more and more. Until we hold you in our arms, we're holding you in our hearts. May you know the love, prayers, hope, excitement and joy we have for you and our life together as a Forever Family.

We thank God for all of you praying us through this journey, too. May you always know how dear you are to us as we walk together in this lifetime Journey of Blessings.
Cherishing another step....
Terri and family

Oh, you sweet little baby girl(s). I get more and more excited each time I read something about it, or think about it - or, whatever. Especially when I go SHOPPING! I can just see in my mind - all those cute, sweet little outfits for (both of) you! We're ONE DAY CLOSER, sweet babies.
Love you,
Judy
