Journey to Honor HIM: FINALLY! I can post an update.

Friday, May 27, 2011

FINALLY! I can post an update.

I've been having some troubles with blogger lately and haven't been able to sign in.

Our baby girl was submitted for her Emmigration Permit 5/20/11. That means that as long as the paperwork goes through correctly we should receive her in July.

My friend C was recently in Korea picking up her son. She took several pictures of our daughter. There is no way to repay her for her kindness. Her and her husband took time out from sightseeing and spending time with their new son to take pictures for me. I am so honored and blessed by her love. What a priceless gift in friends like these.

She's so beautiful.

Psalm 36:7 How priceless is your unfailing love! Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of your wings.
