Six Months Old!
Dear Israel,
Today you are six months old! Oh, son, I miss you so much. I imagine what you are doing and I'm sure you have grown so much since we met you over a month ago. I don't want to think about you growing up without us!
This last month was very busy for us. We have done everything we can think of to get the house ready for you, and all that is missing is a cute little boy to be here! This month we spent time with both sets of your grandparents, and a lot of your aunts, uncles, and cousins! The consensus is consistent: everyone is ready to meet you!
We have been learning a lot about cocooning and are praying for your precious heart because you have a BIG transition ahead! The only thing that would make us feel more ready is to just have flights booked and a date to get you forever! We hope we have that news next week, darling!
This month we have received a few sweet pictures of you and your special mothers. It is clear that they love you, darling, and it is easy to see that they love your snuggles too! We are praying for their hearts as they prepare to say good bye, and for you to know how much they love you.
Son, I feel like there is not much to say aside from a very heart-aching "we miss you"- because honestly, that's all your dad and I talk about these days. We miss you so much and we talk about you all the time. We have memorized your pictures and videos and laugh at how adorable your expressions are!
Israel, it is my deepest wish that we will be on a plane to get you at the end of next week. God has already answered our prayers in many mighty ways, and I cannot wait to tell you about how faithful God has been during your six months of life! He will continue to be faithful and trustworthy, and we are praying that we will see your face very soon and give you many, many kisses to make up for lost time.
With so much love,
Mama
