Guess What????

I was speaking with my China case worker yesterday and she informed me (much to my delight) that Chen Chen is absolutely ours!!!!  I didn't know I could claim him!  All along he should have been removed from the 'available' list of waiting children,  but somehow he wasn't!  Thank God I asked the questions that I did!  I never would have known it!  I have been busy, busy, busy trying to quickly fill out papers and make many phone calls!  She said the normal wait time is up to 12 months, but as long as my home study cooperates and moves quickly, it will be much sooner to receive him!

My kids are so excited!  Nicholas asks me everyday when I will 'get' Chen Chen.  Alex and Ava are actively practicing their finger spelling, which really warms my heart.  So far Ron can do A, B and C.  LOL!!!!  Baby steps, right??

The raffle tickets are moving too!  Many thanks to every one who is actively trying to sell them!  All of them are out there in the midst.  Hopefully, they will all be sold.  If that happens, the next fees are taken care of!

Please pray that the paperwork trail moves along swiftly without complications!  Thank you for everything!!!!  Praise God we got this far!!!!

Love to all!!!!

Sweet Boy...

Sweet Boy…

I wonder as you wake, Sweet Boy;

   How your day will go.

If your big, round eyes will see the sun

  feeling warmth from head to toe.

Will you lay and wait for someone to come

  To scoop you up with gentleness;

From the crib in which you’ve slept that night

   Into arms filled with tenderness.

Will she hold your gaze and smile at you?

   Will she calm all of your fears?

Will she kiss your face and tickle you?

   Will she wipe away your tears?

One day, my son, the day will come

   When you will be here with me.

Rocking, singing, and signing to you,

   Where the Lord intends you to be.

The silent world in which you’ve lived

  We will soon replace;

With smiles, with laughter and with love

  In a home we’ll all embrace.

Home is where we will wait for you

   Until the Lord brings us to together.

The place where you will have a voice

    And a family you will treasure.

So sleep well tonight, my little man,

   Soon you’ll be here in my arms;

I pray the Lord watches over you

   And keeps you far from harm.

Oh Lord, please hurry and bring him to me

    For every day he’s away;

My hearts beats in anticipation,

    To love him to teach him Your ways; 

But for now, Sweet Boy, I'll blow you a kiss

     That the wind will carry to you;

Bringing peace, comfort and a mothers’ love

    From your home forever and true!

Thank you, Jack Burkhead for your donation!  We really appreciate it!


 For those who don't know,  we are raffling off two club level seats with a parking pass for the RAVENS vs. STEELERS game on November 29th at 8:20 pm.  Club level means if it is cold (ladies) you can go inside!  These tickets are worth $400!  The donation is $5 per ticket.  If you'd like to buy one, we can get it to you.   If you think you want to try and sell a book (of 20), we can get those to you as well!!  If we sell enough tickets, we can begin the next step!  YAY!!!  Also, anyone purchasing them can write a check to:  CWF (Christian World Fund), with 'Pierro Fund' in the memo line at the bottom of their check and they will get a full receipt for a complete tax deduction!!  Cash is of course accepted too, but why not get a deduction??


ps.  If you win, you sit next to Ron at the game!  He said IF you are a RAVENS fan you can come to his tailgate!  LOL  Just kidding!
