“It was exciting to be off on a journey she had looked forward to for months. Oddly, the billowing diesel fumes of the airport did not smell like suffocating effluence, it assumed a peculiar pungent scent that morning, like the beginning of a new adventure, if an adventure could exude a fragrance.”
-E.A. Bucchianeri
Here we go y’all!
My Heart is beating so fast…???

Praising God! What a joy to watch and listen to your family’s beautiful journey through the years via your posts, now entering into a whole new phase! Prayers over you all as you soak up every moment!!
I remember the anticipation with our Ethiopian adoption. Best Ever! Safe travels and transitions when you get back home. My little guy was almost 3 and pretty overwhelmed by everything. He came around though with patience and time and is living the dream!
So amazing that it’s finally time for you to go get him!! Wonderful and exciting!! Praying for a smooth trip and transition.
Happy trails to the three of you!
YAY!!!! 🙂
Praying for safe travels! Bless the three of you!!

Congratulations! What a blessing for all three of you. Can’t wait to see the pictures?
Is it weird to sob tears of joy for someone I’ve never met? Well- I am… full on massive tears of joy. So happy for you. oh my gawsh!!!!!!! So EXCITING!!!! Safe travels- PARTY OF THREE!!!! (well- ok- wishing you safe travels for party of 2 getting there) but PARTY OF THREE COMING BACK!!!! WHOOOHOOOOO…. such joy, blessings and the unknown. I bid you safe travels. <3 God's will is truly a gift. Now to go blow my nose from all these tears of joy. lol
Ohhhhh totally not weird. These last couple of weeks with all of this exciting news happening, I’ve had to force myself to only read updates at night when I’m in bed, because bawling your eyes out at work when your boss walks in, and then trying to explain your crying “no, no…everything’s find, you see…this blog that I follow, well they’re the sweetest people, well i don’t know them exactly, but they seem like the sweetest people in the world, and yeah, they’re adopting a son, and they bought their plane tickets…….” —-it gets awkward. hahhaaha
So wonderful!! Praying for Sweet P’s Three Angels family as they say goodbye and for the THREE of you as your little guy comes home. I’m certain that he will be showered with “homecoming” gifts by your families, so I would love to do a little something for Three Angels in Steevenson’s honor. Would a monetary gift be the best or is there something that could be sent there? It’s been a blessing to follow your journey, even though we’ve never met.
I am oh so excited for you all! Hugs and prayers from north Texas.
Safe Travels!
I have been following your story for a while….SO happy for you! Lots of love from Robyn in Australia
