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

We're still waiting to hear even a microscopic bit of information. We're holding to the verse of Romans 8:25 which says "But if we hope for (or look forward to) something that we don't yet have, we must wait paitently and confidently." It is very hard to wait patiently but we are confident that the Lord has a daughter out there for us. We're hoping that 2009 unites us with her. We had a fun time of roller skating at the end of December with some other adoptive families. It was great to meet the families that we've communicated with through email and we rejoiced with one family who brought their daughter home earlier that day. I learned at the end of the evening that you don't try to be a "hot dog" if you haven't been on skates in 20 years because when you boast to yourself that you haven't fallen all evening -- then that's when you hit the floor with a very hard thud! (And need to go to your chiropractor the next day!) Despite me finding out just how hard a cement floor is, we had a wonderful time and we hope that the next skate party includes our daughter. Later this month we will attend a "Matching Reception" where we will be able to view more photos of available children and hopefully meet with some caseworkers. Maybe we'll even find a match. Please continue to pray for us and our search for our daughter (and please pray for her too!)
