YES!!!
That is right we have Pre-Approval for our second son for this adoption! We will not be bringing home one son from China, but TWO!
We are so excited!
When we started considering adopting again, and considering a son we thought about the huge age difference there would be between Andrew and Seth. We knew then, from much leading from God, that we would not be bringing home just one boy but two!
We talked with our home study and placing agencies, our home study social worker wanted to meet with us and assured us she normally does not approve for two but was going to allow it. We saw that as another confirmation from God that it was His plan for us to adopt two this time.
After approval from both agencies to adopt two we began the matching process. We had chosen the name Seth for our son for which we had already received Pre-Approval. As we began looking at files one file jumped out at us. We reviewed his file and began praying if he was the one that God had for our family. And then upon considering his advocate name, Wow!! His advocating name was "Cain", in the Bible Seth and Cain are brothers!! Brothers!! Another gentle nudge from God that he was the one. We quickly will be changing "Cain's" name because, well, he wasn't the best of fellows in the Bible! :)
His name is still being decided on! But, for now we know he is precious, adorable and our son! He is six years old, 11 months older than Seth.
We can't wait to get to China and bring our sons home!!
