It's a MATCH!!!

We received DNA results today in the mail. We are SHOCKED!! We had no idea that the test had even been scheduled and we thought for sure it would be at least another 2 weeks before we heard anything. It is a 99.999999% match!! Jason called me at work to tell me the news. We are so happy and relieved because the DNA test is a very critical point. Eli and his birth mother must be present together for the test and they must have a picture taken together. This is the first time Eli's birth mother has seen him since he was 2 days old. We received a copy of the photo. I can only imagine that this must be a heartwrenching time for her. We will always have an intimate connection with this woman and we hope that she has some peace in her heart and knows that Eli is already loved by many.

This is also the first photo update we have of Eli! He is getting so big and cute as ever!
