On Sunday, we talked to Jimmy. He wished me a Happy Mother's Day, which was so awesome to hear. His extended family was coming to visit. He told us he was going to tell them about the adoption later. We understand that it is a difficult situation and are allowing him to decide when is the right time. We asked Hunter to let us know how their visit went and we would talk to them on Wednesday. We received an email later that day.
Jimmy's cousin and her son visited with Hunter and Jillian. He decided to tell them about his adoption and they are happy for him. They said they loved him very much and wanted to send their greetings to us. They asked that we let him visit after he comes to America. They also gave him $5 Haitian. Hunter said they were very nice people and the visit went well.
Here is a picture Hunter took on Sunday.
Although his extended family live close enough to visit, they are unable to take care of Jimmy. We are sure he feels some apprehension leaving them behind. We know he loves us and is excited to have a family that will love him forever. We hope to help Jimmy reconcile his feelings about leaving Haiti and being a part of our family. However, Please pray for his transition.
