Love the Aussies!

We have been truely blessed, lucky and incredibly fortunate to have met the people we have because of the crazy process known as adoption.

For instance, wonderful Jen put me in touch with a woman in Austraila, Sharon, who with her husband, previously adopted their two boys from the same orphanage that Frank is in. Long story short, they visit close to every year and this year they saw Frank!!! This incredible family goes to the orphanage to bring gifts and donations and to love on the children that are still waiting for their time to be adopted. She called from Songkhla to let us know that he is healthy and adorable and has a little sparkle of mischief in his eyes. They took photos of him with their boys so that we could see how big he has gotten...boy has he gotten tall! I wish I could share the photos with everyone in the world right now, he is absolutely gorgeous!!! The most special gift that Sharon gave to him (and us) though was a big hug and a whisper of love from his mommy and daddy.


So the wait continues...but now we wait with new photos and images of our little one running around with Khye and Jaxin and while most likely confused for a few minutes, hopefully knowing deep down how many people from literally around the world, already love him.


I can't even begin to explain how much it means to John and I that your family from the other side of the world that we have yet to have the pleasure to meet in person, did all of this for us. Thank you so incredibly much Sharon, Darren, Khye and Jaxin!
