Corie turns three, still in China

We had prayed she would be in our arms by her third birthday, May 26. However, she was still there and we are still here. We have learned in our past adoptions that God's timing is never wrong, but waiting is still very hard.

And while we were not able to be with her, we were able to arrange for a cake to be delivered on her birthday!!! Amazing! We were able to send her pictures of her new family as well.

Of course, we thought of her all day.

A week later we received pictures of her enjoying her cake along with other children at the orphanage. We pray they are telling her about us. We pray she will feel she already knows us. And we pray those precious boys will have families soon as well.
