A Samuel Sighting! A Samuel Sighting!


Some of you may have seen the mention of 'Mingxi' on Kaitlyn's Cafe (the site I gave you in the last post). She was talking about our Mingjie (a.k.a. Samuel)!

Stefanie has seen him, taken pictures of him and says that he is doing well!
I wish she could have just grabbed him and run him home to us, but at least we're going to get some news and a recent photo of him once they get back from China. Unfortunately, they've been unable to upload pictures from Nanjing. They head to Beijing tomorrow so we may see some pictures then, but for sure she'll send us something when they get back to Canada the week after next.

I just can't believe that someone we know has seen Mingjie in person, has maybe talked to him and has maybe even touched our sweet little man. Right now I wish with all my heart that it had been us. How can I miss a child that I've never met so much? How can news feel so wonderful and hurt so much at the same time?

OH My God!!!!! I am in tears reading your post! I can only imagine how you must be feeling. This is bittersweet... Soon you will be there and it will be you holding your precious son.

Love and prayers that your LOA will arrive and of course a speedy TA to follow.

Hugs,
Jen
