While we were visiting Cohen in Guatemala, we met some wonderful families who were also waiting to bring their babies home. We just heard the news today that one of the families is OUT OF PGN!!!! YEA!!! Here is a picture of Gabriella (who we all nicknamed Princess) with her mom Kellie. 
Hearing about Kellie and her family this close to bringing Gabbie home gives me so much hope. We complete mountains of paperwork, go through blood tests, home studies, and fingerprints, and feel like our entire life in under a microscope. Then there is the waiting... We don't labor in a hospital, but for months and months we are in emotional "labor." But after all of this craziness, I guess it hits you. It is worth it.
Who knows exactly how much longer it will take for our case to make it through PGN. All I know is that every crazy hoop we jump through in order to bring Cohen home is worth it.

Lori,
I just found out about you adopting through Hollie. She recommended your blog. Doug and I have just prayerfully begun the process to adopt a baby girl from China. We'll be praying for you guys. Hope to keep in touch.
Doug and Julie
Your montages are wonderful. It was such a wonderful tribute to all your friends and families going through the process of adoption and to see their joy on their faces holding their little ones. You are always in our prayers and I pray that PGN will be fast and smooth.
Lori,
I've been looking at your blog for a while. That video was so touching, I'm all teary eyed. I'll be keeping you in my prayers as you wait to have your little guy at home!
