Hand picked?!
We are more than certain these children were long ago, hand picked, for our family.
And some more good news! Our Petition to Court arrived today! Yay! This is a must have document before we can get our court date in Kras. A few more signatures and formalities, then we send it back and wait to hear about court. We're still hoping to travel in early June, but it's too soon to tell.
We're looking forward to the dinner and silent auction coming up this Sunday. If you haven't heard, our great friends, Jon and Amy, have planned a benefit dinner and auction for us. The cost involved in adopting three children from Russia has become quite staggering. Jon and Amy realized this and set to work organizing a fundraiser. There are so many people behind the scenes who are helping out and making donations. It's already incredible. I'm reminded that when God calls us to do something, He always provides just what we need to carry out His plan.
We're so fortunate that our new family is being built in such a unique way. The prayers and support of others are step by step helping unite us. I will never know how to thank you enough. Just know, that you carry a piece of our family with you.

Yeahhhh!!! Paperwork movement!
how sweet...I was actually thinking of your waiting time and how it reflects our walk with the Lord. He has gone to heaven to "prepare a place" for us and in the meantime we are waiting for our reunion with Him. In the same way, your children are waiting as you prepare their place for them and they have no idea what is in store, what is waiting for them as they wait for you. Thanks for letting us be part of your sweet life!
I, too, was reflecting on your wait time. WOW! It's been a three year pregnancy...and what a wait it's been. I admire your positive spirit and can't wait to welcome your beautiful children home. God's time is the perfect time...but isn't the waiting is a killer!
