We Miss You, Michael

Sunday was a tough day for our family. Michael's grandparents came to take him home. He was a part of our family for about 4 months while his grandparents took care of personal matters in order to move ahead in the adoption process. We knew the day would eventually come, but it didn't make it any easier. We miss him. But in all of it, we know that Michael is loved. Not only by his grandparents and our family, but also by our Heavenly Father. That brings comfort. And we also know that Mikey will continue to be a part of our lives. His grandparents even graciously call us his "second parents." We are already looking forward to his next vist.
Last night when Harrison prayed before bed, he said, "Dear Jesus, thank you for angels, Baby Jesus and Michael. Amen."

I know how much you were enjoying having him in your house and growing attached to him!

I'm sure it felt like a strange transition to have 4 kids and now I'm sure it feels wierd to have him gone!

You'll all be in my thoughts and prayers, Michael too.
