We ask that you pray......for Yun-jeongs little heart to heal quickly and for her to somehow feel peace that its all going to be ok. For Jae-min...that he feels loved and cherished through this huge change, and that our foundation of attachment that we've worked soooo hard to build is only slightly shaken and not destroyed. For me......that I have the strength to help both of my children through what is to come, the patience to handle it all, and the grace to do it beautifully. For Joe....that he has the strength to keep us all together, and at the same time feel what he needs to feel. And for Papa....that he can handle all the bags, work the video camera Haha, and soak in this awe inspiring experience. Its go time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We'll see you soon as a family of 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On Wedesday we ended up going to Namedeum Market, saw the changing of the guards, and ate lunch at Bulgogi Bros. Jae-min loved the drums and watching the procession....and he finally got to see a king!!!!!!
Papa and Jae-min enjoyed haddeouk outside at the market....yummy!!!!
This nice guard made Jae-min feel so comfy standing next to him as he kept whispering little things to him.
Heres the market. We arrived shortly before it opened so it wasn't too crowded. It was fun to browse around and really experiene this part of Korea.
After lucnch we ended up napping and during nap looked what appeared....ah the reality has set in!!
After nap we went to dinner at chicken and beer. Jae-min was restless, whiney, and just not happy so I decided to take him to the park where we happened upon a concert. We were enjoying the music when all of a sudden things turned and I think we were in some sort of demonstration!!!! Um yeah awkward!!!!The guys finally found us and were laughing that we'd probably get arrested hahahah
After we met up we went for a walk, then to bed.
After we met up we went for a walk, then to bed.One more sleep till we meet sweet Yun-jeong!!!!

Happy Birthday Joe. What a great gift you are getting this year. I do pray every night for you both to be strong and have patience. I know the love you have will get you through anything. Peace to you and kisses for Jae-min and Jaelah. Love, Mom and Dad
I am loving reading your posts! I am praying for you tonight and for your sweet daughter. I can't wait to see pictures of her in your arms!!!!
I got up really early thinking that I would see pictures of Jaelah. As usual, I'm confused with the time change! lol I had told Martin that we needed to go downstairs to see pictures of his sister!! I know by now that you have your daughter and I hope that everything went well.
It looks like you're having a wonderful time. Prayers are being sent your way!
Happy birthday, Joe!
Love, Mom
Happy Birthday, Joe!! I am already in tears here, just thinking that you guys are in Korea, holding your little girl in your arms as I type!!!!!!! : ) I know this will be extremely tough on everyone, but I am confident that you all will come through this beautifully. Jae-min is such a strong and secure little boy--and all of the attachment work you did with him will continue to pay off. It is just unbelievably hard to think about the grief that Jaelah is experiencing, but she will come through that, with your love, and her doting little brother's love, too!! : ) My internet connection has been up and down, but it better not be down later, cause I can NOT wait to see those pics of little Jaelah, and the new family of four!!!!!!!!!!! : )

Happy Birthday Joe! Hope you are enjoying your day as I am sure you are. What a great time to be celebrating. Hope all is going well with your new daughter for all of you. Transitioning will be difficult but the result will be surreal! Hugs and kisses to all and can't wait to see everyone on Sunday! Love, Amy, Chris, Nick and Maria
