Mollie celebrated her 2nd birthady on April 28. We wish we could've been there with her but unfortunately we have just a little longer to wait. So we sent her a birthday cake to help her celebrate with all her little friends! She was "Princess for the Day". She looks as though she enjoyed her little party (and the cake too). The director took pictures of her special day and they emailed them to us today. What a wonderful surprise! We LOVE getting new pictures of her!
They also sent updated info on her size. She is growing!!! She is 30.25 inches tall and she now weighs about 22 pounds (probably with all her many layers of clothes on). I'm thinking she is probably wearing somewhere between 12 and 18 months size clothing. She seems to be about the same size that Grace was at that age.
More good news . . . We got a call from the adoption agency on Thursday morning. They had just received our LOA (Letter of Acceptance). I was shocked! This was the document we have been waiting for! I really wasn't expecting it for at least 2 or 3 more weeks. Our agency can now request travel approval. We are thinking we will probably travel in mid-June. It won't be long now and she will soon be in our arms!
God has worked all this out for us. His timing is perfect! We look so forward to finally meeting this new little member of our family that God has chosen for us. We know that He has been watching over her since the day she was born. Please pray that God will begin preparing her heart for all that is about to happen in her little world. It will be very difficult for her at first, but we know that this was God's will and that she was meant to be a part of our family.
