Hello All,
We received "The Letter" from our agency telling us we were officially placed on the waiting list May 2, 2008! We couldn't be more thankful and filled with joy. Thanks to all of you who have prayed with us over the past year+ while we're trying to expand our family! I received some wonderful personal news as well yesterday that J and I are so grateful for as well. God is so good to us!
Now the "real" waiting begins! Some families in the Korea program with our agency have received referrals lately and they have waited 5-6 months! So, there is a great chance that maybe we will see our sweet child's face sometime late fall! Then we'd travel in early 2009! We are very hopeful, but know that anything can change with International Adoption.
Prayer Requests
*Pray that our child has been conceived
*Pray the Birth Mother takes wonderful care of her body and the baby throughout her pregnancy
*Pray that J, Miss C and I are patient while we wait for our referral
*Pray that our hearts will know our child when we see him/her for the first time and there will be NO doubt that this is the referral for us
*Pray for J, that he has confidence in all of his abilities and stays true to who he is and the man that God made him into (he has had an overwhelming week)
*Pray that Miss C will adjust well to having a sibling
*Pray that our sweet baby will be home SOON!!!!!
