A road block that we see as a blessing

Of course we knew that somewhere along the way there would be a road block and here it is. This road block means we are not going to get to pick up Levi in December now. For those of you that don't know, Levi has congenitial heart diease. Levi has to have one more surgery by the time that he is 4.  His foster mom says that he is in need and ready for it now. Eric and I are very sad that we are not going to be able to be by his side during this and he is going to be way across the world in Singapore as if it isn't hard enough having him in China, but now our baby will be going through all of this without us. One thing we do know is he has God on his side watching over him and loving him and we know He will take the best care of him. We are praying for a succesful surgery and a rapid recovery. Levi will hopefully have his surgery in November she is waiting for the funding to come in from the hospital. We feel that this is a blessing because now when Levi comes here he will be done with his surgeries as everyone knows there are many things that come along with adoption, but one is the bonding process sure we are believing that it will be great, but that is a huge thing for a little guy to have to go through and to have a major heart surgery right when he got here on top of it all we felt that would be a lot on him. Even though this is hard God has perfect timing and he knows what is best for all of us. We thank him and praise him for this. By the way we have new have new pics so if you want see email us.

I'm so sorry you won't be able to be there with Levi. But I'm glad he will have his needed surgery. We'll be praying that things go well.

Surgery is tough, but on the good side he will have his foster family with him which should be comforting to him. Hope all is well and hope you can make it to FF at my house next week!
