We’re having a baby . . .
Posted on August 27th, 2010.Or toddler. Whichever, God sees fit! What? You’re confused? Oh, well, I’m not exactly pregnant. We’re adopting! It’s official! We mailed our adoption application this week and just got an email today that it was received. We are adopting from China and everyone around here is very excited! I know many of you think we are crazy since we already have four kids and all but that’s ok. I’m prepared to deal with the crazy thinkers. I think I’m crazy most days too (and not because I have four kids and I’m adopting but just because well, I am crazy)! If you would like to know how we got on this journey then read here and then here and that should get you pretty much caught up. I’ll try better to keep this blog updated with our adoption journey. I know it will be an exciting one and we would love your prayers. Lots of love to you all!
