YIKES!!!!!!!!

Tomorrow's the day!!! Thank you to all our very loving family and friends who have faithfully held us up in prayer over the past 3 & 1/2 years. Thank you to those who have left such kind words and warm thoughts on this site. Thank you to all those who helped us along the way, for without each and every one of you, this journey would have been more difficult. And most importantly, THANK YOU HEAVENLY FATHER for granting us the desire of our hearts and blessing us with this precious little girl.

We're coming to getcha' honey!

We leave in 4 days??!?!!?!?

After this wait, it's hard to believe we're so close to leaving. We're pretty much ready to go. I started my maternity leave on Friday, and I'm praying we'll be able to get everything done that needs doing before Thursday.

Today is Mother's Day & we're missin' our daughter somethin' awful!

This has been one of the more difficult weeks we've had in a long time. We're very grateful that God's been protecting us from the enemy, 'cuz he's really been after us this past week. Thank you Lord for keeping us safe. (And thank you all for your continuing prayers!!! They were REALLY needed!)

On a happy note, we'll be leaving for China in only 11 days and we're getting very excited! I'm still trying to figure out just how to get our clothes packed. We may have to each wear 7 layers of clothing on the airplane :-)

Have a great week everyone!

Four weeks and counting....

Four weeks have now passed since we received our referral for Lucy. We've been staying busy working on odds and ends that need to be done, and picking up the few things that still need to be packed. We can't believe that we're so close to bringing Lucy home. In just 24 days we'll be holding our daughter. Thank you Lord!!
