As I think back through the year of all the pictures, video, footprint and updates we have received of Elijah I see how we have fallen in love with the little boy we see.

Prayers remain with you, as always.
I like the new format on your blog. Great picture, just missing one little black boy! In His time. In His incomprehensible time.
We continue to pray for you and your family.
I promise he is real! I have hugged and kissed him...but I know how hard that is to believe sometimes on this side of the world with only a picture and a video! Hang in there..keep praying..keep expecting! God is moving mountains!
