Awesome Update!

We're working on last minute details right before our trip, and we are energized by a terrific update that we just received from our adoption agency, Living Hope. As of February 26, Ellie was 28.9 inches tall, and she weighed 19.8 pounds. Thus, we learned that she's growing AND that the hole in her heart has closed AND that her left hip is no longer dislocated. The right hip is now only partially dislocated. Praise God for this awesome medical update. Only one more week until we hold her in our arms for the first time... Until then, less than 24 hours until we leave our home for our nearly three week adventure-- WOW...
