From Anxious to Disappointed

Just a short post to update......the birthmom decided not to follow through with adoption. She is going to keep her baby. Of course, not the news we wanted. Please continue to pray for her and this baby. According to the agency, she doesn't have any support system nor a good environment in which to raise the baby.
I also ask that while God works on my disappointed heart that you will continue to pray with us for OUR baby. The one God has created just for us to love. I know He has answered our prayers, I am just ready to see it!
Love you all.....

ANXIOUS

Well, we are closer to our dream than ever. Our profile was shown to 2 moms last week. One mom chose another family.....rejection never feels good. But the other mom is "strongly considering us" !!!!!!!!
She is expected to make a decision this week. She is due July 17th. Please pray that she is drawn to us and that she can feel the love we have to share, even though there are many miles between us. Just pray......

POSSIBLITIES

So, to cut to the chase.....we know that our profile book will be shown twice this week to 2 separate moms who each have due dutes within weeks. We are praying for God's favor as these moms meet us by reading our letters and seeing our pictures. PRAY, please PRAY that these moms will be drawn to us and the love God has placed in us for them and the baby. PRAY that we are chosen to raise one ( or why not both?!) of these babies. PRAY nothing stops this choice and that we finally get to hold our baby. PRAY.
It's my heart crying out to you to agree with us. We will hear something this week. PRAY that we get the most wonderful news!

I love summer!

Summer is such a fun time for us. Benjamin and I have been enjoying the pool and he is really getting good at swimming. He loves the water is not afraid of anything. It's so fun to watch him try new things! If I ever get really brave I will try to post pictures on here.

Please keep praying with us for our baby to come soon and for the birth mom as she views our profile. Pray that she will be drawn to the love that Jesus has placed in our hearts for the baby and for her. Pray that angels will protect our answer and pray that Satan will not be able to interfere!!!!

Happy Anniversary!!

Today my sweet husband and I have been married for 9 years! It is such a happy day for us. We have been through many ups and downs as any marriage does but I am so in love with this man! He truly completes me...yeah, yeah Jerry Maguire and cheesy but it is true. He is my best friend and he gets me. (Most of the time!) I thank God for a Godly man. He is such a gift!
