We just arrived back to our hotel with Eliana! What an experience...as the wives were all filling out paperwork, the babies were brought in while our husbands watched.
One by one our names were called as we were matched with our babies. She has been hand-picked by God, named before time to be our daughter and here she is!
It has been quite a hard day for her..she had a 7 hour train ride to get here, then had the stress of coming to new people, getting photographed, and riding a bus back to our hotel! She handled it well, but is a bit fussy now. She is fascinated by Doug's razor stubble, so I'm thinking that he can't shave for a while :)
As for prayers...we were told that she has been quite ill and in the hospital for several weeks due to a diarrhea disease..she still has bruises on her head from the IV's..and is quite thin...please pray that we can get her home and to a doctor safely and quickly without delays. Also, that we can manage her care here as well...this has all got to be very hard on her.
Sum up the day in a word? Or a few? Indescribable, uncontainable, You set the stars in the sky and You know them by name...You are amazing God!!
