Good News!!!!!

Last night, we had our webcam conversation with En Yang! Wow! It was wonderful! He was a little shy at first but once he warmed up we introduced our whole family (even the pets) and he was really excited to see them all. He asked great questions about each of our sons and the sports they play, he had his scrapbook with all of our current photos in it (I send him 2-3 additional scrapbook pages each month for them to help him build his family album). He asked what Halloween was all about and if Richie throws the baseball very fast when he pitches! It was so much fun, it was almost 2 hours! My boys were falling asleep on the couch after a while but it was so priceless. We ended the conversation telling him how much we love him and gave him hugs and kisses and he said I was the best Mommy in the world!!! I will be smiling for months on that comment alone!!!!!

They said they will set up another one of these in about a month! I am beyond excited to hear that he is excited to be coming "home" (even though we don't know when that will be yet)! It was awesome to hear him calling me mama and Heath, Papa and to have him call the boys his older brothers. He even quizzed me on my Chinese (which is very weak but he had fun trying to hear me pronounce some of the words). Happily, he understood most of it!!! The rest was easily translated by the worker in the orphanage (same woman we met who traveled with him to Maryland last summer).

June 4th there is a hearing in Taiwan and hopefully, Final approval will be a few weeks later. Then we have to wait 30 days (or more) for his visa and then we can bring our son home!
