Homestudy Visit

WELL, I think I can breathe again!  We had our first visit for our homestudy today!  I am not sure what made me MORE nervous:  A social worker coming to my house or when he called and said " Can I come 3 hours early?"!!!!!! PANIC was the look on my face when I said, "But my husband is still at work!"


Everything went fine.  Our social worker is a very nice man.  He asked many questions about our marriage, looked around our home, and walked us through what to expect in the months to come.  I was very nervous and wanted everything to be perfect and in its place.  I don't know that I slept last night for worrying about it.  I was not sure what to really expect, but as far as I know, it went fine. 
We feel relieved that now we know what to expect and what to start working toward.  We have an 81 page manual to read and lots of paperwork to begin filling out!  We are excited to be beginning this process to bring a new member of our family home.


Please continue to pray for us on this exciting journey.  We still have lots to do and money to raise.  Our desire is to bring this little boy home as soon as possible.  We want to say a HUGE 'Thank You' to all of you that have helped us this far.  We are encouraged by your love and support.

LOI for Shun Xianzhi

We sent in our LOI (Letter of Intent) for a precious almost 2 year old boy in China today.  We fell in love with this little boy, and we are waiting to receive our PA (preliminary approval) from China.
There will be more information (and pictures!!!) to come once we are matched with this little boy that we already love so much!

They that wait upon the Lord

Isaiah 40:28-31

Has thou not known?
Hast thou not heard,
   that the everlasting God,
        the Lord,
        the Creator of the ends of the earth,
        fainteth not,
             neither is weary?
There is no searching of His understanding.

He giveth power to the faint;
   and to them that have no might
       He increaseth strength.

Even the youths shall faint
   and be weary,
and the young men shall utterly fall:

But they that wait upon the Lord
   shall renew their strength;
   they shall mount up with wings as eagles;
       they shall run, and not be weary;
             and they shall walk,
                      and not faint.


God encouraged me today with this lesson in Kyleigh's Reading book.  God gives us His strength when we are weak.  When we cannot continue without Him.  His strength is so much better than ours because it is never ending.  It is just right for the problems that we face.
I needed that encouragement, and God knows just when to send it.
