Sorry that I haven't posted anything in so long but I was visiting my family in Fl and AL. I have to say I was a little sad returning home to IN. I miss my grand babies so much when I'm here. They call me crying and it just tears me up inside. God said he will give you the desire of your heart:
Psalm 37:1-6
1 Do not fret because of evil men
or be envious of those who do wrong;
2 for like the grass they will soon wither,
like green plants they will soon die away.
3 Trust in the Lord and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 Delight yourself in the Lord
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him and he will do this:
6 He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.
I am trusting in his word and I am believing that soon he will move us back to our family where these beautiful daughters we are bringing home can grow up with cousins, Aunties, Uncles, and all of their extended family!
So to update everyone on our progress. We have completed all but about 4 or 5 documents which I will have finished next week. They will be sent to be Apostille and then I will send the whole Dossier, minus the I171H form, to EE. Our finger print Appt. is for the 23rd of April and I am praying that we will be leaving the 1st of July. This is the month that I have had in my head every since we started so I am just believing for it.
We went to by car seats today and I wanted to get the Britax for the kids because they are suppose to be really safe. Instead my husband took Josiah and bought him a Sponge Bob and Hannah, (which is what we are calling our older daughter), a Dora. He informed me these were for his truck and that it was a definite necessity for him to have. So 280 dollars later I still have to buy car seats for my SUV. However, we left Walmart with two smiling boys, and yes one was my husband!
If anyone that reads this feels called please send our link to friends and family and ask them to prayerfully consider giving towards our adoption. I would sell everything to get these children here but I am praying that God will continue to touch the hearts of people to give. Thank you to all who have already given and to everyone that is and has been praying for these children!!

ReplyDeleteThanks! John and I bought a few outfits to take for Hannah today. I got size 6x pants and 7 shirts. Do you think these will fit? I wanted to have a few things to have when we go. :)
