God Bless the World Wide Web!

We are still waiting for our Travel Approval from Ch!na. As I shared before, the average wait for Travel Approval is 2 - 4 weeks. We are currently on day 16, so our TA could come any day! Everyone please PRAY that it comes soon!

Also, please note that I added a new gadget (Follow By Email) on the left side of our blog. You can now get email updates whenever a blahblahblahblog post is added :-)   Thanks for adding this gadget, blogspot peeps!

The Lord has given us access to so much information about our boys online. We have connected with families who are also adopting, people who know or who have visited our #2 son, families who are adopting from our sons' orphanages, and parents who have children with cleft issues. We are able to read Ch!nese newspapers (the English version of course LOL) and to learn about cleft lip and cleft palate. We are even able to know what the weather is like right now where our munchkins live. The world really is at our fingertips!

For all seven of you who read our blog on a regular basis, did you know that we have an international audience? Check this out... our blog has been read by people in the following countries:

1. United States (obviously)
2. Canada
3. Netherlands
4. Russia
5. Spain
6. Ir@n
7. Sweden
8. Germany
9. Mexico
10. Ch!na
11. Belgium

So number 6 and number 9 are the most interesting to me. And I am surprised that the one person in number 10 was able to view our blog.

So we give a great big WELCOME! to our international friends! Thanks for checking us out!

((((HUGS)))) and God bless!

pulling them to their feet. Be patient with each person, attentive to individual needs.
