Passing time...

This week has been so hard for me, we are on day 74. Waiting for one piece of paper.  I keep telling myself that Gods timing is always best. And I do know it always is but I am struggling to keep my head up durning this wait. I keep Window shopping,  filling my carts online and then deleting them. Its so hard to wait we have been in the process of adopting our little girl for over a year now. My prayer since we started was to have my baby in my arms by her third birthday. It is coming right up in April.  I known it is still possible to do but things are taking soooo long.  Please pray with me that we can have our baby by her birthday.  God is bigger then any paperwork and can move things very quickly if He choses. May this be His will!
My heart longs for her to be here. Each day that passes sets her back another day. She has regressed so much, and this momma's heart breaks with each passing day.  God keeps reminding me, ' for I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not evil, to give you a future and a hope' Jeremiah 29:11
Leaning on His hope each day and trying to not get discouraged by each passing day.  He has a plan and we can't see the big picture. We can only trust, He does. He always knows whats best for ALL His children. Each day is a learning lesson for each of us, I guess mine once again is trusting Him no matter what.  :) she will be here before we know it . He will complete what He has started.

My baby....

We made it through yet another month, of waiting. This month has been harder then others. We have had trail after trail. Yes, they are small compared to what others are going through but they were still trials.
We got a update on our little girl. She is not doing very well. She needs her momma and daddy to come get her. We found out she has a few more delays then we first knew. She has regressed to being completely non verbal. Our hearts just break, my baby is hurting half way across the world and there is nothing I can physically do. Our sweet princesses has challenges and on paper its a bit overwhelming. We are very anxious to get her home and start the healing process. She will need lots of different therapies and lots of love to get her over the mountains she faces. We are connected with some great therapies here in town , God has connected us with a ton of people who will be helping us find the tools she needs to be the full person God intended her to be. We don't know all the challenges our little one will face but what we do know is that God will provide what she needs.
We had our therapist that we work with look over the video of Elle, she said if I hadn't told me her age she would guess our baby was around 7-10 months old, both in development and size. She says she can tell she has vision issues and wouldn't be concerned that much with her except that she is almost 3.Which that in its self is concerning. She realized she hasn't seen her or been able to evaluate her. But she was very positive and has giving us recourses to use. She did agree we will have a long road ahead. We realized she was tested at a hospital and the diagnosis could all be as they say and we are ready to face them .


Please be praying for our little girl. Please pray her paper work gets fast tracked and we can travel on or before her third birthday. Please pray for provision for all our up coming fees.


For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. Plans to prosper and not harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
