Introducing Samuel August Stone!!


Our I-600 decision came in at 4:06am! We are thrilled to introduce our son.

Samuel should be arriving on Colorado ground with his daddy and poppa around 2pm on Thanksgiving day. Quick email sent to families, and blog updated, so you are among the first to hear! Will call people and send more updates in the am, but I just had to let someone know!!

Now - it's 4:23am so back to bed. (Yeah, right!)

WOOOO HOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We love you Samuel! You'll be with Mommy and big brother Jackson soon!!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

God answers prayers not what or when we want but what He thinks is best. You have grown from this in humility, patients and love. This has prepaired you for the mother that Samuel will need. God is great!!

I'm so late in seeing this but I'm teary! This is significant as I am rarely teary. I so wish I had been involved with your requests for help, not that we could have contributed much. But I am so happy for you. ..Stranger. Blog worlds might be a little weird. But I truly am so happy for you all and just love your son's name!
