The Little Blessings

Dearest Desi,

We continue to wait for the travel approval. We continue to pray for you daily. We continue to dream of the moment you come home and are a part of our forever family.

Today we received an updated picture of you. And you are beautiful. Though we haven't gotten the travel approval for our mom to come and get you, the Lord continues His blessings. Like this picture.

Though some people might see you and believe you are handicapped, that is not how we see it at all. The Lord is not deterred by the fact that you do not have your left forearm and neither are we. You see, we are here to glorify Him, and outward appearance doesn't matter one bit. It is so exciting to think of all the things you will be able to do in life. We want you to dream big. Don't ever let the sky be your limit. With the Lord, the sky will never be the limit. So never, ever, let anyone tell you that something can't be done. That some goal can't be accomplished.

If we listened to them, Jenna would not be at home right now. And we would have never seen your face. You and Jenna were our mom's passionate dream. Even when it seemed the world was against her in her pursuit for adoption, she kept on. We are so thankful for that, because now very soon, we will have you in our lives.

We know you probably have no idea about us. But most precious Desi, we know all about you. Every single day we pray for you. As does so many important people in our lives. You are loved more than you could ever imagine. And when you come home....well we're not sure our hearts will be able to handle the joy that will fill them.

Loving you to the moon and back,

Devan, Jordan, and Jenna

***As your sisters, you should know we love to live lives full of joy. And we can't wait to share that joy with you. Here's some fun we have been having lately :)
