Now for the REALLY BIG NEWS! We have been matched with a precious little boy! We received a call on October 21st about a file for a little boy named Qian Geng Sheng who had just turned a year old. I agreed to take a look at his file, but I waited (not so patiently) for Tyson to arrive home so we could look at it together. We knew almost immediately that he was our son! He has a malformed right ear and is probably deaf in that ear. We submitted our LOI (Letter of Intent) to China on October 24th and on November 1st, China gave us the Pre-Approval to adopt our son!
Introducing Nathan "Nate" Sheng Sailer!
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Romans 12:2
We just got our Christmas card from you. Your news is still tingling my soul as my eyes well and sting....K and D here very soon....stay together, Donna! Randy smiles:)
ReplyDeleteRandy and I are thrilled for this baby boy that has entered your lives. We feel your JOY! God prepares us for what he has prepared for us to do....Eph 2:10!
You know you are always welcome anytime. If it fits as you journey to SD or anywhere, wonderful! Take care of your family as you go with God. Stay close. We love the Sailers!
Merry Christmas and God's Blessings as you enter and travel thru 2012.
What peace to know you live for the King of Kings and Lord of Lords each day! Love enough-RanD
The entire Steele family rejoices with you. Adoption is a gift from God and a life-changing journey. Our view of God expanded as we went through our adoption. May God open your eyes to His wonderful grace bestowed upon you. Nate is adorable and was made for your family.
