As many of you now know, we have prayerfully moved from the Russian International adoption program to the Guatemalan program.
The day after we signed with our new agency, we received the referral of a beautiful baby boy, born August 24, 2005, weighing in at 6.8 lbs. He is living with a foster mother in Guatemala, until our court case to adopt him is processed. We have decided to name him Caleb Michael. We are hoping and praying he will come home in December, but have learned with International adoption, that you can't predict timelines. Guatemalan adoptions usually take about 4-6 months, sometimes longer.
Yesterday, We received a DVD in the mail. Hannah ran up our long driveway yelling, "It's here, It's here! Our DVD of Caleb is here!!" We sat down as a family and watched it! Seeing his little arms and legs moving, and to hear his little cry was priceless. He has stolen our hearts.
We are hoping to go to Guatemala for a visit in the month of November. We are unsure of the dates, as we are waiting on Hannah's birthdate to be corrected on her passport.
Thank you for all of your support and prayers! We love you all and are greatfull for all of your heartfelt words over the last several weeks. We have closed one chapter in our lives, and are now opening another. Please stay tuned as we embark on this new journey.
Bus, Sabra and Hannah
