Getting Ready

Well, we've cleaned out the extra room, dug out the baby toys, worked out the budget, and planned out the fall.  We can't wait but we know everything is in God's hands and we trust His perfect timing.  We could get the call anytime, or it might be several months.  It's kind of like the wait when you know the baby is due to be born anytime, except drag that out over a few months, and take away the sore back and swollen feet.  Okay, maybe it's not really like that.  But still, it's a wonderful time of anticipation.

"sore back and swollen feet"....

Is that what we have to look forward to?! haha!

What a blessing it was for Sara and I to catch up with you. Hopefully a year from now we will find ourselves leaving for Thailand for our first stint.... Things are going so fast. I didn't know you were adopting, but thank you Facebook for filling us in ;-)

Blessings to you both...we look forward to seeing you soon...

How surreal it must be to have all your stuff ready and to know it could be anytime... I'm still hoping we'll get to meet your little one when we come to get ours!!! It's so fun and special to share this journey with you guys! : ) Love you all!
