8 Days until we leave!!!!   Yes we are excited, but could use some prayers. Spiritual protection.  We have been feeling the attacks... We can get all of our ducks in a row...lately it's felt more like squirrels than ducks and squirrels are never in a row.   The kids and I can focus on school these last few days.  Homeschool is great but we might be a bit distracted this week. For the hearts of Miley and Jasper.  They will be staying with sweet friends and Rebecca's parent's while we are in China.  Our sweet friends have 8 kids and 3 are from the same orphanage as Miley and CC and Grandad are just wonderful! We feel so blessed that they are caring for our lovelies, but cry easily thinking about leaving them. Our three older kids hearts too.  They will be traveling with us to adopt their brother.  I'm praying that God uses this trip to open their hearts to Him.  I'm praying that this trip is life changing for us all. Health, oh we don't want to ge

Our Son!

14 days 12 hours and 45 minutes until we board an airplane bound for China!!!! We are so very excited to hold our son, Theo, and tell him that he has a family forever.  He has a daddy who will hug him, tickle, rough house with him.  He has a mama who will hold him, rock him, and sing to him.  Theo also has 5 siblings who are beyond excited to meet him.   My mind wants to say so much right now.  I've typed and backspaced about 5 times now and just can't put words to my emotions right now.   It might be because I'm fighting a cold or that I'm about to be a mama to 6!   Theodore Jiangting Bostrom is 4.5 years old and he is beyond precious!  We have two short videos of him and 7 photos.  That's it!  We have worn out those photos these last 10 months.  Well...basically check back here in 14 days 12 hours and now 32 minutes and we will post our adventure getting our Theo here.
