So it is so exciting! Tonight for the first time we saw our son and heard his voice! We had a video conference with Kai Wei via Skype. It was really fun. Almost the whole family was home. (But Jonathan who was very disappointed that he would be camping with scouts). Kai Wei was so happy and sweet. His English was great. He is very limited with what he can say, but we were impressed with his pronunciation. We think he will be very easy to understand.
We were ALL a bit nervous. But we all had fun too. In Taiwan Kai Wei's social worker was in the room with some other people and they were joking and laughing and helping to translate. And at our house we were all talking and saying hi and introducing him to each of us. He really seemed to like it when Timmy asked how old he was and then told him he was 17. He also liked the new puppy, Java and he said Daniel was cute and that he would pray for him on his birthday. (Which Daniel told him was next week). We are really excited to chat with him again.
We've also had some news on Sarah Grace. She is going to be moved to Jonah House next week! This was not anticipated. But we are hoping it turns out to be a good thing for her, Kai Wei and the whole family in general. I guess we may get a chance to speak with her in a future chat!
God is so good and tonight we thank him for technology that made this possible!
