One of my good friends here in Hong Kong, and her husband, aren't able to have children. They've been working on adopting a baby here in HK for about the last year or so, and they just found out this past Thursday that they got matched to a 5 month old little boy! They met him today for the first time and get to spend a lot of time with him over the next few days, (including bringing him to church on Sunday!!!) and finally get to bring him home on Tuesday. They are absolutely ecstatic. We talked to them after they got home from their meeting with him and you could just tell in their voices how absolutely happy and in love they are with him. Sarah said that when they first put him in her arms, he snuggled right up to her and started smiling. She said she started crying because it just felt so right and so amazing to finally have this little boy in their family. I'm just so excited for them that I had to share.

That is awesome! I'm really happy for them! If I had some $$ I'd adopt in a heartbeat!

How exciting for them! Sounds like they're all going to be very happy with each other, lol. That's so cute he snuggled up to her instantly.
