All day long I have felt like I was forgetting something. I have been wracking my brain. Appointment? No. Phone calls that need to be made? Made them and still didn't shake it. Soccer game? Not until Saturday.
Just now I got an email from a family waiting for their TA so they can go get their little boy. They asked me a timeline question, so I hopped over here to my blog, where my adoption timeline still lives down there in the bottom right-hand column.
And there it was. On September 27, 2011, I got an email with
FW: Adam: Su, Yin Tao in the subject line. And I knew. I knew it was a kid from Suzhou. I knew it was my son. I opened up the email and saw this face:
It was 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Everyone was headed home for the afternoon. Within an hour I had left a frantic message on the voicemail of our agency rep, called the agency that sent me the email (different from our agency) and left them a message, and called my husband. Within 24 hours I had found his finding ad online with another picture and had consulted with an SLP, a pediatrician, and an audiologist. Of course, it took until October 3 before we were able to lock him in. But on September 27, 2012, I knew.
Jack, I am so glad that God directed our steps to you. You bring our family so much joy. I love you more every day.
