After 20 minutes of looking sad and avoiding eye contact, Emmanuel finally--and reluctantly--asked us this heartbreaking question Sunday. For an instant I glanced at B and knew we were thinking the same thing: reassure him, remind him this long wait isn’t the same as other losses he has experienced in the past. We both longed to be able to reach through the screen and hug Emma, to show him how much we love him and are doing everything possible to come quickly. One day that moment will come.
For now, we’ll continue to pray for God’s timing—and we’ll enjoy each
minute on Skype, each email, each text, each picture.
We are coming, Emma. Te lo
prometemos. We promise.
oh the hard part of getting to be in contact with them... so absoulutely worth it though!!!! soon it will hopefully be very soon!!!! hugs n prayers
