He knows!!!!

Thanksgiving Day will forever in our home hold extra special meaning.  On Thanksgiving Day in China (yes they celebrated at PHF), Elijah found out that we are his forever family!  Tim was so kind to record part of this and send it to us.  Evidently Elijah was told that we were his family, then he opened the package and looked at our album and read our letters (from Dad and Mom, and one each from Michaela, Benjamin and Johanna).  At the beginning of the video you can hear him say “Ni hao” to “Mama and Baba”.  What a sweet, sweet voice!  He’s also wearing the sweatshirt that we sent in the package.  Tim said Elijah was so into the album and kept looking at everyone in amazement.  It seems so much more complete now that he knows what we have known for so long.  Oh my precious son, I can’t wait to love on you and welcome you into our family!  It’s becoming more real every day.  Also posted are scans of the album pages that we sent.

    I’m on the verge of tears..actually choking them back right now. He is so precious. I love how he’s so into the album, and then as the letters are being read he’s just clutching it and rubbing it. What a perfect Thanksgiving. praise God for such sweet blessings.

    I am crying…..He is adorable! I am so happy for all of you, especially for Elijah. I
    loved watching his precious face as he was taken everything in and how he was
    trying to take a peek at more. I know Thanksgiving will now hold precious memories for all of you from now on. What an awesome blessing from our Father above. He is so good!

    Well, I’ve watched the video several times. It is so compelling! Can’t wait to hug our new grandson–our 10th grandchild, with one more on the way! God bless Tim for giving you this precious gift of a video, but most of all, we’re thankful to our God Who continues to give the most awesome gifts!
