Thank you so much to each of you who responded to our announcment with prayers and words of encouragement! We are so blessed with tremendous family and friends! Several of you requested to be kept updated on the adoption process, so we have decided to blog in order to keep our freinds and family in the loop and track God's miracles along the way. We will start from the beginning to fill you on on how the decision came about and then from there, will just post when there is something to share. Adoption is a long process so there will be times when we will update you often and times of waiting. We really appreciate all the wonderful emails and words of support from so many of you and we are really excited to share the journey with you, so, here it goes...
Little Miss Chubby Cheeks

We wanted to put a face with the little baby that we have been talking about since March so you all could see how precious she is. With today's amazing technology this is actually possible! At the ultrasound on Thursday we all giggled at her little chubby cheeks and funny expressions!
As we are nearing the due date, things are not looking very good as far as the probability of us actually adopting this little one. There are many complications right now. We are writing to ask for prayer. Not that we will get to adopt this baby, but prayer for God's will, for wisdom and strength (for Hayley, the birthfather, for us, and everyone else involved)! We do not know where this little one will end up, but one thing we do know for sure is that she is precious to God!

We will definitely be prayng for God's will. I know from experience that it can be hard to want God's will instead of our own. And I'm sure especially more since you guys have gotten to see ultrasounds and go through the pregnancy with her. It would be wonderful if we all knew what God's plan was for us, but at least we know He has a plan and He is good!

We are keeping you in our prayers as this journey continues. We are not strangers to the rollercoaster of emotion that comes with adoption and waiting for God's perfect timing! Hold tight to knowing that God is who He says He is and He can't wait to give you the blessing of a child. As I sit on the other side of that road I can say all the pain was well worth it! May God pour out His blessings on you and bless your faithfulness!
