OUR GIRLS KNOW THEY HAVE A FAMILY! After waiting for 12 anguishing days to hear about their responses (I know 12 days isn't that long...but we were so excited!) we received 3 videos and their social, physical and educational updates yesterday! Along with a bunch more pictures!
I would love to be able to post pics and videos, but can not yet at this point. Let me just give you a written explanation of the amazing videos of the girls being told:
Both girls are sitting on a bed with their social worker in between them. It's mostly all in Ahmaric, so we are guessing what is being said. The social worker talks and then hands each girl the photo books I made them with pictures of our family! There is literally a 2 second pause and "T" whips her head up and you can tell she processes this and begins asking questions! Then announces "we have family!" clearly in English!
"B" just starts screaming and bouncing on the bed! Then they both laugh and giggle for the rest of the video! The next video they are punching the air shouting "we have family! We have big family!" And then "B" starts laughing and bouncing so hard she rolls to the floor!
We are told they kept asking the social worker "if this is real and that they were really going to go together and be in the same family". Priceless.
We have pictures of each of them holding the photo album I sent. It is an
awesome thing to behold and made the wait since being matched with them in March, totally worth it!!
These videos are cherished by our family and are truly priceless!!
