HOT!!!

OK This is Sprummer...we missed a season. I am now getting ready for the confirmation on a family, sibling group/ set, so we know what our next step needs to be. As I hear and read of others finding out referrals for children and travel dates and court dates, I rejoice because I know soon it will be me. I am so happy for all of you parents out there that received info and I ask if you will please keep us in your prayers. We need our Home Study to go any further. With out the home study you can not fill out grants or even find out who your children are. I do know God knows so I will wait on HIM and trust in HIM. Thank you.

YIPPIE!!!!!

So today I went to the post office and mailed out our dossier paper work. We are praying that God will take the papers safety to the proper people and that the home study will fallow soon. One of the most important things we have learned is that you need to be very patient with the paper work. Secondly you need to learn to lean on friends and family that support you and allow them to help with what they can. And finally Gods timing is not easy to understand but it always seems to be JUST RIGHT! Thank you all who have logged on and are reading along as we live out this tyring process...IT IS ALL WORTH IT!!!!!!!!!!

BIG THANK YOU to Traci my friend and the time you take to help us get-r-done!!!

What a man

Well today at church Rich was asked to speak about the adoption process. Much to my surprise, he really is in tune with what is going on. Men have a way of staying so calm and cool during all the different aspects of the procedure. I am like a fish out of water wondering "what next!" He is like butter on a pan, slow but he is covering everything.
I am so blessed to have the family God has put together, I need to get the dossier papers finalized and sent out this week. I have a feeling that this will be the week I find out who my children are. Please everyone PRAY! for DCFS to complete our study and send it out to the proper people so we can receive our children God is holding on to for us.
As Rich mentioned in the service today, "It is on Gods time, and for His glory" so may we be open to act when we are told. Thank you so very much for your prayers. Take care and have a great week.

Helping Hands

Yesterday we set out to help a friend with her garage sale to raise money for her air fair to Ethiopia to pick up her son. This will be her third adoption and she, Melinda, is such an inspiration to me and the process we are going through. Melinda and I are using the same agency and she helps me out with the terminology I do not understand. I sat beside her yesterday and she said to be "you need to do just what you are suppose to"...That made me think, get off your butt. I am going to send my dossier and as soon as the people holding on to my home study let it go...WE WILL BE ON OUR WAY! I can not wait for man to let me know what God is calling me about, I need to be confident and let them know where we are headed. (with love) Melinda's sale was a gr8 success and I am praying the weather lets up so she can have two more days of success and raise up her full amount needed. All of you readers, Thank you, you are a nice ear to type too. Have a blessed day and a great weekend.

Long time coming

Well as I sit and think about how many blessings one is to indure I realize that there is no set amount. I have been blessed with four wonderful ladies in my Bible study on Friday nights, and let me tell you WE ARE DIGGING! I am so greatful for them and how they get into my business and encourage me to drive harder. I pray that if you are out there and you need encouragement that you seek God first and allow Him to place people into your life that you need. This was no accident, these women are all different. We do not look alike, we do nott have the same backgrounds, and we are made in one image; Gods. I thank you ladies for helping me through these trails and would pray that the things you are seeking after are being blessed as well. God I am thanking you most of all for saving me and "peeling" away the layers of unnessesary stuff in my life. Oh, and as for the adoption. Things are moving along. God did driving and Rich the girls and myself are moving right along with HIS direction.
Thank you all for reading and being a part of this wonderful blog.

Change in our plans...All in HIS plan

Well as some of you heard and others are just learning. The sibling group we were persuing has been changed. We are still in the process, but God is preparing us for the family He sees fit with ours. There are 147 million orphans in the world, God will place the amount He wants us to have and the ages He sees fit for our family. It was so very hard for me the last couple days, but I know God is amazing. I only ask that the first sibling set we were praying for everyone continues to pray that they do find a forever home. My heart aches and the girls are sad, but we all know the sovereignty of God is pefect. Please continue to pray for our future family, thank you.
