Oh boy...China again?
Okay, so we had a fantastic New Years Celebration with my family and so far the new year has started off well for us. We have decided to hire a tutor for Longji to help with his Chinese homework and just to communicate with him in Mandarin. We will also be looking into a Kung Fu class. Hopefully we can do this one night a week too. We are pretty much officially half way through the school year and I just cannot wait for summer to get here again. Plans are already in the making for Longji's first birthday party with us and we will look into the re-adoption process over spring break. With all of that said...our hearts have been tugged on a bit with pursuing a second adoption. It is something we have discussed in passing, but lately I just cannot seem to get the desire of bringing home another child out of my heart. To think that Longji was considered too old and un-adoptable just breaks my heart and I can't imagine him not being part of our family. Call us crazy, but there is another child out there longing for their mama and baba and we believe that is us. We are not sure where to start or even have a clue how to finance the whole thing a second time, but I truly believe God is all over this thing and in some way or another he will provide for all of us. Anyone who has met Longji knows what a blessing he is and the fact that he and his sister, Jordyn, are adamant about bringing home another child...well, you can't ignore the stirring in their hearts as well. Longji has been praying every night and the words he shares with Jesus are the most precious I have ever heard. So with all of that said, I guess we are on to another journey...per God's request.
