Another Update on Isaac

Today has been such a confirmation of God's love for us, His sovereignty and how He is moving in so many ways that we cannot see. This morning we received an update from Natalie. I mentioned in the post below that an adoptive family had taken a blankie, letter, and photo to Isaac for us. Well, I was busy working away, when I received an email from the adoptive mom. It was just what I needed for today. I've copied it below.

"First let me say your little man is the sweetest thing. We saw him on Wednesday the 20th. When we got to the foster care house he was being held by Travis downstairs, like he was ready and waiting for us to get there. I recognized him right away and pulled out his gift. I gave him his blanket toy that he grasped onto right away and the other hand had the picture. I read him his letter and his little face just lit up. Travis said that they would start calling him cutie pie for his big sister. I held him for about 20 minutes and he never stopped smiling. He has such a sweet spirit and you could tell he knew he was loved. I held onto him until they made me give him back! I hope you enjoy the pictures."

She sent us lots of pictures. It meant so much that she held him and loved on him awhile for us (and that she read him the letter).
