Our son!!

Well, I am very slow at updating this thing. The Korean gov't did rule in favor of the foster family, so Hanbin is staying in Korea. For me, by the time we heard the decision three weeks after the initial call, I was more relieved than anything. It was all finally over, and we could move on with life. Well, a week after that call we received another call. Amazingly, we already have a new referral. This time Korea made sure our child is with an experienced foster family who will be able to let go of this child they have loved, so the risk of that happening again is non-existent.

His birthday is May 12, and he is a very healthy little guy. Neil is still working on his name. These pictures were taken at the end of August. We cannot believe this is our second referral of a completely healthy child. That is very rare. God continues to bless us greatly through this process.

















Apparently the old-man-pants-up-to-your-armpits is the latest baby craze in Korea.


































Our wonderful social worker who has a child from Korea commented,"Good luck with his hair." She speaks from experience.

WOW! God is so good! What a beautiful baby boy. I see lots of hair product in your future!

So what are you thinking of for names? You've got to let us know. He looks like a Daniel to me - that was the first thing that popped into my head.

Congratulations!!!!!!
