A Little Behind

I'm a little behind with my updates here. Time has gotten away from me. There isn't a lot to report but I'll let you know what is going on with the adoption stuff. We received our papers back from "Homeland Security" (the I-600A that we submitted a few weeks back). Everything was in order so everything is good with that. We need to get our home study completed and our fingerprinting done to fully complete that step.

I am daily learning to trust God. Sometimes I don't get why it is so hard for me. Finances are something that I struggle with, just wanting to "figure it out." So in the last few days I have been wrestling with my will to want to control this and knowing that I need God to be in control. The adoption expenses are more than I know how to handle or more than I could ever just figure out. I know God is faithful and always has been. Jeremy and I have been more than blessed over the years and if we have ever been left wanting, it has been our doing and not the Lords. So I have to daily give this burden to the Lord. Thank you all for your continued prayers for this.

I am getting more excited as the days go by. It is hard to imagine what life with look like at the end of all this. How a child will turn our life upside down, as I know they will. I know it won't always be easy but I'm excited for the adventure.
