No Update.

Well we have not heard a thing about our adoption. I will be calling our agency on Monday to check in, as I know we will soon have some more documents expiring. I have had conversations with the Lord this past week, how it would be so easy if he could just have the two children arrive at our doorstep, and I would promise to love them, and care for them, and train them up in the way they should go.... teaching them to love the Lord. But alas, I don't think He has chosen an easy way with our adoption. I'm sure many adoptive parents would say the same... hardly easy, but worth it! I need reminding of that....

On others news we have some friends staying with us until they find a place to live for the summer. It has been really nice to have fellowship during the day, just chatting with a girlfriend about life. They have two daughters and the youngest is 3. It's giving me a taste of what life will be like with a young one in the house again! Perhaps the Lord is preparing me as I have been out of this age and stage for several years! lol!

Finally, I really need to get working on our yard sale stuff. It is 3 weeks away and I am so not even ready. Not even close. I need to begin working on it ASAP, however with baseball season also starting...and a game almost every evening.... life here is getting crazy hectic! I hope to get something accomplished for the yard sale this week.... Anything!

Waiting is the hardest part. I understand exactly what you are feeling. It is hard to be patient, but I know that God gave me a full dose of patience while we have been waiting.

Hang in there Jackie and focus on the yard sale and other things. Enjoy your company and before you know it you will have news. We are anxiously awaiting a post from you regarding travel dates!
