When it's HIS will...there's a way!

If you have been praying for us and following along with our adoption process, I have some crazy news for you.  Brad and I have been overwhelmed with God's goodness this week as we had a call on Tuesday from our adoption worker asking us if we were still interested in the two girls we had been working to adopt as we were working on our new home during the end of February, March and part of April.  We were working feverishly to get everything done so this would work out and we had been so discouraged and disappointed when we had heard from the agency that another family had been selected.  At the time, I was a little confused with what God was doing because I had felt He had given me clear confirmation that they would be a part of our family.  Kenna said at that time, "Well, maybe God is just giving us some time to get the house ready for them."  AND, even though I had hoped for the same thing...it is really hard to encourage your kids in that direction when you want to protect them from heartbreak and disappointment...so I just said, "Whatever God wants for us is the best plan...it is in His hands."  SO, it was such a surprise last week to hear that we are now back to the point of the agency considering us for them and this time...as a first choice for these two girls. We may have an opportunity to meet them this week...so, please continue to pray for us this week and for the girls as we hear they are feeling pretty anxious over the prospect of being adopted and having more changes in their lives.  Please pray that God will allow for a smooth and healthy transition time for all of us.  Your thoughts and prayers are treasured!
