This morning Timothy came into our bedroom and crawled up to give Ed and I hugs. He laid there for a minute, comfortable to just be near us. Peter and Lydia are so excited and ready to be on our way home. They have WAY too much excited energy right now!! Timothy has no idea what is ahead of him and is playing nicely with his little car.
We want to thank everyone for taking the time to follow along with us on our adoption journey. We are so grateful for the support of family and friends. All of the uplifting comments meant so much to us and did so much to lift our spirits when they were down.
We look forward to getting home, getting settled and getting comfortable. We will be seeing you soon and so look forward to introducing our little Timothy Kiril to all of you. Take care and God Bless!

Gillis Family,
ReplyDeleteI am happy that your adoption journey is ending, but I have to admit my heart sank when I saw "this will be the last Gillis family blog". Comments from family and friends may have uplifted your family, but reading this blog has been uplifting to me!
I can't wait to hear more about Timothy and the love and support your family will bring him. He is one lucky little guy...

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful story with us all!!! Yours is such an inspirational story. I look so forward to it every day. That being said, I am sorry to hear that the blog is ending. Knowing that this day would come, I am sad none the less. Your faithful journey has been so uplifting to me! I will truly miss it!
ReplyDeleteThis mornings story of Timothy is so heart warming! Such an adjustment has been made by all. All three of your children are truly remarkable (they certainly have good examples)!

ReplyDeleteWhat darling pictures! Your dad and I will treasure this blog forever. It has been amazing. Am so glad we have the technology that we do today so we could be updated daily on your adventure. Snail mail would not have done this story justice. We are so excited to be able to see you all this week-end. Have a safe trip. God is so very good and we are truly blest by Him. Lots of love, mom and dad

Thank-You for sharing this important journey with all of us!!!! You have made us all PROUD by showing us how to TRUST and OBEY!!!! Keep on TRUSTING.....LoLee
ReplyDeleteI ran into your mom last night at Erdman's as she was buying groceries for you. Sure it will be good to be in your own home with all the familiar things again. And soon, they will be familiar to Timothy as well. I LOVE the picture of him on the swing with Peter - what a face!! Praying for your travels today and we will see you soon.
ReplyDeleteAwww! Really? No more Blog entries?! It's been so great to be a part of your daily journey. I will miss hearing all the details, but am even more excited to meet Timothy. Welcome to the SZ family, little guy!!! Safe travels! Cindy H.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with everyone else...No more blogs? It was the first thing I would look for on my computer daily. I think you should update maybe once a week!??? It is been such a heartwarming journey and as said...You ALL have done this family proud. We cannot wait to meet our new little cousin, nephew, grandson & great grandson! Welcome home! Julie
