The day finally came...we
received word that all pre-release files of children in Wuhan were
finally released today!! These last 2 months of waiting for Ella's
official release so that we can actually start working towards
meeting her has been SO long. Now we are able to breathe a little
easier that Ella will soon join our family...she will be ours and we
will be hers. Such a beautiful thing!!
Holt is anticipating the
wait time to travel will be anywhere from 6-8 months from now. So
now the wait begins again ;) But at least we know now that each day
that passes means we are getting closer to being together. And we
can now start the second phase of paperwork to keep us busy in the
meantime.
Ava brings up Ella on a
daily basis. “Ella's silly like me.” “Ella's a princess like
me.” “When are we going to get Ella, tomorrow??” She is as
excited as Mama and Baba are. We LOVE that!!
Ella, we think about you
everyday. Wondering what you are doing in that moment and
daydreaming about what we'll all be doing a year from now. We love
you and cannot wait to meet you, hold you in our arms, and never let
go again. You are special to us and have already filled our hearts
with so much joy. We pray for you and your foster family's safety.
We pray that you are well cared for, loved, hugged, sung to, cuddled,
and tucked in bed every night. We pray that you feel that you are
loved now and we promise to love you always in the future. We love
you Ella!!
