Is This REAL or Just A Dream?

That was Abby's question as we prepared to pick up Isaac Kehua.  It this real or just a dream?  It is real!  Our son is now sleeping contented in his mommy's arms.  Wow. We received Isaac Monday afternoon, May 3rd, did a little paperwork and took him to our room at the Lakeside Hotel in Fuzhou. He cried for a few seconds but that was it. He, as Jonathan put it, "is the baby BOSS."  WE took him to the restaurant and he ate noodles, and bananas and cheerios and anything else he could reach!  Isaac can stack the stacking cups upside down, he has a strong throwing arm, can kick the ball and he can laugh really well.

Sandy just lay him in his bed and he kept on sleeping.  It does seem like a dream but it is so very real.  Isaac has a forever family, a daddy and a mommy and sisters and brothers, and a home with a table that has more than enough room for him.

Pictures will come later.  Thank you all for praying.  The fervent prayers of a righteous one are very powerful and effective.
Grace,

Congratulations!!! and welcome Isaac to your forever family. We are rejoicing with you. We are praying for your bonding time with Isaac. The class is excited to speak with you & Jon next Monday. I'm planning to reach you on Skype this Friday to see if it works at the school. I'll try around 9:00am here which would be 9:00 pm there. If it works then we'll have the class involved on Monday the 10th at 9:00 pm your time.
