Packages

Last week, when I sent off my dossier, I explained to Abigail that our dossier was on its way to Ethiopia and that the judge would have to decide if we could adopt her sister. I told her it might take a long time, and we would just have to wait and keep praying for all the children who need a family.

On Friday, we received a large envelope package in the mail from my mom. I knew it contained some pictures and goodies for Abigail- it was addressed to her, after all! I called Abigail over to look at the package so that she could see that it was addressed to her.

She took one look at the size and shape of the package and exclaimed "Momma, does this mean the judge said that we could get my sister!?!"

That just tells you where her heart is, I guess:)

I'm really glad that Abigail is so excited for this to take place. She is so smart and I think she is going to handle all the change extremely well. Plus she has a great mama who explains everything really well to her!
