I was reading Ryan a book on Thursday evening and got a surprising phone call! It was the director of our agency calling to see if we wanted to hear about a little boy she had met on her trip to Korea. Of course we said "yes". After telling us a little about him the director said she would email us the picture and the information she had about him. It is hard to describe the feelings of opening your email to see your child for the first time...and on a throne! We think he is darling and can't wait for him to join our family. Our information is pretty limited, but his growth is on target and he is doing age appropriate things. He is six months old as of yesterday. The director said he has a very sweet personality and was very friendly.
When we went to meet the agency in February we were told that they usually have a referral for you within six months after getting all of the paperwork finished and in. Since we have a couple more things to send in, we were very surprised and happy to hear so soon. I may have to give Harvey an extension on his 'list'.
Now we have another pile of papers to take care of and have notarized. We have been told it is usually 3-4 months to get everything done and have the baby come home. We'll hope it's even a little sooner!
We are still working on his name. We will keep part of his Korean name.
We'll put up a few more pictures that we have gotten soon.
Thanks for all of your love and support! We appreciate all of your prayers for Seo Jin while he is still in Korea and that God will prepare him and us for our new life together.
