Mamma Drama

Current circumstances related to the H1V1 virus have affected the registrars offices in the province where Gates Waits. We will be contacted once the DS230 has cleared CCAA and Travel Approval is issued to us. At that point our China agency contacts will communicate with government officials to ascertain whether or not travel to receive our Son is possible yet. Check out the U.S. Consulate in Guangzhou website and the World Health Organization website http://www.whoint/ for the latest information on the global effect and response to this situation. We appear to be at a total standstill. God however, is still King of the Universe.

We've decided to have a quiet week end. Well... our own kind of quiet. At the moment, Daddy, Aimee and Bridger are building an enormous tent in the livingroom. Bridger is planning an indoor camp out tonight. His puppy (a little basset hound/boxer mix) is delighting him with enthusiastic yelps. We will spend the day doing yard work and planting my new Mother's day gift pink lemon tree. We will also have a lot of down time together. On Sunday we'll have great church times, brunch here and then out to Nana's for a visit with the extended family.

May God bless your Mother's Day. I'll be looking forward to sharing mine with all of the precious children around me this year... and I'll be missing my waiting one too... very, very much.
