And a family of three.....

becomes a family of four!!
 
So, we currently have guardianship of Jian.  Tomorrow we will sign all the official papers for the adoption.
 
He was very excited to see us and we've done pretty well at communicating!  In fact, it's been better than we had expected - praise th Lord for answered prayers!  Jian loved swimming in the pool and eats like a teenager!!
 
Tanner is absolutely loving having a big brother.  They're enjoying each other and so far sharing nicely.  The 3 boys just went out to try to buy superglue to fix Tanner's broken glasses :(  Hopefully it will be a successful endeavor!
 
While they're out, I'm going to try to take a little nap.  We will update more later, hopefully with more pictures and details for you!

Praise God!! I'm so excited for you. I've been following everything on your blog and I was really glad to get all the extra details on your friend's blog. God is so good.

Jon and Shelly, you are amazing and wonderful parents. I'm so excited for Jian to get to experience your love. Can't wait to see more.


Will be praying that Tanner rests and feels better.
