An easy way to keep friends and family updated on our adoption process.
A long wait

We still haven't heard anything about the 25 or so children we inquired about in the last few weeks. A dear friend, and a wise Christian, recently told me that she was praying about our adoption process. She said that if we were trying to get pregnant, we'd have to wait nine months to get the baby. So it will be similar with the adoption. We will have to wait a little while to get her. The analogy to a pregnancy got me thinking about the fact that we haven't heard about any of the inquiries of the kids. Well, if we were trying to get pregnant, it would be several weeks before we would know if we were expecting. So it got me to thinking that it may be several weeks until we hear any info about the children we're interested in. For the most part, we are patiently waiting. But it is hard. Some days I struggle with being patient. I want to find my daughter, and bring her home to love. But I know all this will be in God's timing. In His time, He will give us our daughter. He will give us the daughter He wants us to have. She is out there waiting. God has her set aside, reserved for us. In His time, He will lead us to her. Please continue to pray with us and for us that God will lead us to our daughter. Please also pray for our future daughter -- that she will know we love her already and that the transition into our family will go well.
