Getting closer...............

Hey guys, I know we don't post a lot but we have had some good things happen. We went to a workshop with our adoption agency and heard the most amazing adoption stories, just ask us and we would be more than glad to share!
At the workshop, our hearts were changed more than we ever thought that they would be. For me, I just realized how everything is in God's control. His timing. He has the baby for our family. He will work out all the logistics. I don't have to worry. I heard story after story about what God did to work out every adoption, not what people did to make it happen.
For Brandon, he has said, it changed his mind on open adoption. He now views this as an oppurtunity to minister to the birthparents and thier families as well, if possible. We can be a light to them and love on them through this process. Since we are having an open adoption, we will hopefully get the chance to do that!
Another thing that is going on, is that we are having fundsraisers this month to help raise the needed money for our adoption fees. We know that God will bless our efforts and we are so blessed to work with our brothers and sisters in Christ! We know that we will be blessed through their help and that God will bless them as well.
Just keep praying for a quick return on some goverment papers that we need! God is working in our hearts, preparing us all the time for changes that are ahead..................
