Day 116 - October 9 - Preparations

A day filled with preparations, that's what today was. It's hard to believe all the details that have to be addressed in order to bring your own child home!

I don't have too much to report today, except about what happened this evening. Tonight, I was reading to Connor while Cherie massaged his neck and shoulders, stroked his hair and snuggled close to him. As she was rubbing his shoulders, she trailed her fingers across his chest - and he felt it. Just a light touch, just below the collarbones, and he felt it.

8-D

So we continue to pray, thanking God for each new thing. Thanks, Abba.

A beautiful report. I love the imagery of Mom caring for her son so lovingly and tenderly.

Thank you Father for taking care of your children.
