Don't forget Violet

There has been some concern (mostly by a grandparent :) that we might forget Violet in this process. You can rest assured that this would be absolutely impossible. Just now Violet said to me, "Mama, get down off there" because she disapproves of me being on the computer. However, with all this talk of a baby sister, she might already be showing some signs of regression.

In other Violet news, she has recently been diagnosed with asthma. I am going to call it "mild reactive airway disease" because that sounds much better. She has been sick with her typical coughing twice since January 23rd. She has nebulizer treatments a few times per day, but only with these colds. When she is healthy, she breathes just fine.

There is no such thing as a candid shot with Vi. As soon as she hears the camera turn on, she puts on her cheesy smile.

Anara Update: Our documents are being translated right now. Our power of attorney in K-stan is asking the adoption committee to waive the waiting period after the adoption is finalized. She is also inquiring about whether the country fee can be lowered because of her special needs. You can pray about these two things. They would mean a less expensive and quicker adoption. Pray also that God would move more families towards adoption.
