Here’s our boy, Micah…

Please meet, Micah Jonathan Malone Micah – a derivative of Michael (and Misah).  Hebrew origin.  Means “one who resembles God” Jonathon – Hebrew origin.  Means “gift of God.”   We had a very trying day Thursday.  There’s lots that happened that we are not ready to share yet, but just know that your prayers are what got us through.  We found out yesterday that the papers for Micah would be very delayed in coming.  We also were told that Matthew had lost his status as “orphan” which made him unadoptable (this is due to a documentation problem with the father).  We’ll tell more about the day sometime, but TODAY was a new day.  New mercy, new grace. We had a great visit with Micah today and we found out that the papers would be ready (probably) on Monday afternoon.  We also found out around 11:30 this morning that the father had been found (of Matthew) and he had gone to a notary and done the paper work to allow us to adopt Matthew.  We are praising God.  Our emotions are in shambles.  We’re tired.  But we are BLESSING THE NAME OF THE LORD through it all.  He brought us.  He will complete what He has begun!

The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy!

  Here’s some pics of our visit with Micah this morning… “Hey…they’re not looking!  Let’s make a break for it!”
 
So happy today.
   
He likes to hold books.  He likes to hold them against his face.  
He was dying to go outside.  He was going to put on Mary’s coat so we bundled him up in his gear.  This lasted 30 seconds and he asked to go back inside.   

He loved wearing Mary’s gloves!  So cute!
    We had a wonderful time with Micah today.  We’re excited to bring him home to meet the family. Be blessed our friends.  We’ll post pics of Matthew tonight after the visit…
