Timeline

I took a little time today to write down our adoption timeline.  I spent some time reflecting on the last three years and praying for the future.  It was good; it was hard.  I'm praying that I can always look back on my life and see God's hand in every step of the way.

Can you say LONG ROAD?!
We are close, we know.  God knows when our time will come.  Meanwhile, we are updating paperwork yet again.  It just doesn't seem to get any easier. 
We are still praying.  Praying boldly.  Asking big things of the Lord.  He hears us.  He loves us.  He does what HE knows is best for us. 

Isaiah 25:1
Lord, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago.

      Latest paperwork:
Off it went!!!  Working on the next set now!!! :(
