After hosting V for a month over Christmas, God has impressed on us to pursue adoption. We covet your prayers and support during this process.

Home Study visit 3

Well, the REAL home study VISIT was this morning!! It was totally pain-free and easy! Well, maybe the PREP wasn't pain-free but you know what I mean! lol  She was here less than 30 minutes.  Hopefully, our dear ANGEL, Kelly, will get our home study completed and send it to us to 'proof' this afternoon.  Of course, we still have to wait on our passport numbers before it can be really COMPLETE!! We are anxiously awaiting the completion of our home study so that we can begin applying for grants.  People are continuing to GIVE and for that we are SO VERY GRATEFUL!!
It is getting more difficult to communicate with V when we call her each week because she is losing a lot of the English she learned when she was here. She cannot understand us very well at all anymore.  This really saddens me to think that probably in the next few weeks we may not be able to communicate at all other than "hey", "I love you" and "bye".  But, we will continue to call her regardless.  We have not told her of our intentions.  Months is a LONG time to wait for a child - well - for an adult, too. We felt it would be best not to make her have the long wait that we are having.  Furthermore, something unforeseen could happen during the process to delay it even longer - so for now, we are just praying that God will prepare her for what is to come!! I pray that God will give her a peace and anticipation that something EXCITING is waiting 'just around the bend'.
Please be prayerfully considering if God would have your join with us on our quest to bring our daughter home.  You can give via Paypal through the Fundraiser link on our blog or send me an email if you'd like our address to mail a donation.  Puzzle pieces are still available.  We will also be having several upcoming fundraisers - t-shirts; portrait sessions; etc. So - stay tuned and PRAY!!
