Quick Family Update

With two active little ones, we hardly have time to sit down long enough to write blog posts these days, but we definitely wanted to post a family update soon as many of you are probably wondering where things are with our adoption. I think I'll just keep this to bullet points since both my kids are supposed to be napping (but aren't) :-)

1) We are in the middle of our home study update. It is supposed to be written this week, which means it will be finished THIS MONTH!!! This is big news :-)

2) For those who haven't seen our Facebook updates, we are so very close to fully funded, pending the sale of our little home that we've been renting out for the past several years! We have a purchase agreement and are waiting on the financing and closing details to come together. We thank those of you who've helped us financially prepare for the coming of this little one into our family! We knew God would have to divinely provide funding for His calling to come to fruition, and He has continually amazed us in this area as we've had little energy for "fundraising," yet funds have been coming in continually. Please pray with us that the sale of our home would come through as expected so that our funding will be in order soon!

3) What's next? We will be applying to agencies that have been recommended by our adoption consultant and wait to be matched with a expectant mom. Please pray with us as we wait for the match the Lord has in store for us!

4) Please pray specifically with us for travel plans, as we could need to pack up to travel quickly to anywhere in the U.S. at any time. We are praying for wisdom in either traveling with our two little ones or having them spend some time with family or friends.

THANK YOU for your prayers for our family in this journey! We have learned so much about the Lord this past year and have been amazed at His provision and His guidance in this process. We're excited to see what He has planned for our family!
