Is she born yet?

I probably get this question more often than any other. I wish I had an answer. However many times we've been asked, Doug and I have asked ourselves that same thing ten times over. Vaughn the other day was walking around and mumbling to himself, "Baby Esther not born yet. She still not born yet." (I love that he thinks of her without us bringing her up!)

Last week on vacation I had the realization that it is now very likely that she has been born. I guess we will have to quit praying for Baby Esther "in her birth mommy's womb." Unfortunately I think that was the easy part to explain. How are we going to explain that she is born and she is ours, but that she just can't come home quite yet? Or maybe, if I'm being honest, it is me and Doug that will struggle most with that.

Thanks for hangin' in there with us,

Alex
