Today is Jesse's 6th birthday. We are so excited to know that this is the last birthday we will spend apart from each other and the last one he will spend in China. We were able to celebrate with very special friends and sing happy birthday to Jesse and blow out 6 candles in honor of him.
However, this was a day to reflect upon Jesse's mother and her choosing life for Jesse. We are so thankful that she chose to bring him into this world and am sure she is mourning on this day, as she will never see Jesse again. We pray that she can find peace in her decision to choose a better life for Jesse and get him to a safe place. We do not know or understand all that Jesse has been through in his 6 years, but we are counting the days until we can record his life in our family photo albums!
We are still waiting to get our Letter of Acceptance (LOA) from China, and are hoping to travel in February(ish) of 2014. Thank you for your prayers and support for our little man in China.
Happiest Birthday Jesse! Your cousins are thinking about you :)
