Day 3

I didn't really get to talk to Daron much today, so hopefully we will get to more tomorrow. By the time I realized that my volume was down on the computer, it was too late to hear the phone ringing for the web cam and he only had a minute to chat. At least we got to see him quick and the kids very briefly. It is great to see how comfortable the kids seem with him. Today they took the web cam outside for a minute and he was telling me their clothes sizes so I can start to gather here. Fia is wearing a 2T and a size 8 shoe; she is tiny for just turning four! Kwame is wearing 18-24 month, so he might just pass her by. I do think we have a first though. People may start to refer to some of our family as 'petite'(insert snort)! Everyone that has seen our other three know that word has never been used while referring to our family, especially Ella, who is a good 6 inches taller than most of her classmates. I just can't wait to see for myself and hold their sweet little hands in mine!

Tomorrow Daron will go and file all our immigration paperwork at the Embassy and the clock ticker begins. Here is where it can take anywhere from 10 business days -4 weeks or so for us to be approved. Please pray that the timing is more towards the 10 business days!!! Also, we still don't have F & K's passports and we need those-please pray that we get good news on them in the next couple of days(or tomorrow, or maybe today, or how about NOW??!!) ;)

Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts. It means a lot to hear all of your excitement in the process.

Kristen!!
How great to see the pics from the beach. That is the exact same size Grace wears.. it's hard to fit them because they're so slim but growing taller so a 2T is sometimes to little. And yes, she is our first "petite" in our family!!

Am praying for your passports.. seeing Daron makes me want to go back!!
