It's been a few days since my last post but things have been a "bit" hectic in our world with the Harvest Festival and Halloween and all of the chaos that comes with both of those. We also hit our first bump along the road in the adoption process. I won't go into a lot of detail, but for a day or two we thought we weren't going to be able to adopt after all. To be completely honest, I was scared to death. You wouldn't think it would be that big of a deal I guess, not being able to bring home a child you've never met or even seen yet. But in reality, for me it was like when your doctor tells you there might be a problem with your pregnancy. All of the uncertainty and fear that comes with not knowing if your baby is going to be ok. I realized during this moment of limbo that I was already completely attached to this little boy a million miles away that I've never even laid eyes on. I feel like we have a son out there just waiting on us to get all of this red tape stuff out of the way and bring him home.
As it turns out...everything will probably be ok. We have it pretty much straightened out. A request...pray for favor with both governments, continue to pray for God's provisions financially, and pray for our son who desparately needs people around him to love him and care for him until we can bring him home.
