Its always amazing to me how time after time my brain forgets that God actually IS the one in charge.
November- God leads us to adopt two little boys with DS from another country.
December- Working tirelessly to get them home.
January- We find out that one of the boys is no longer available for us to adopt. Heartbreak and gut wrenching prayers follow.
February- We find out that we're going to have two little ones after all... but one of them is coming from my belly. :)
Thats right, I'm pregnant. Who would have guessed? :) Total surprise to us... kind of still is. But God is good. And He knows what He's doing.
Its so much better when He's in charge.
We're still hoping to travel to get Pavel in April or May (which... its a six or seven week process, so that means he'd come home the next month). Please pray that I'm not sick when we are there because right now my only focus in life is to keep down food. :( And the new baby should be coming in October!
I love how God is GROWING our family. I love HOW God is growing our family. I love how GOD is growing our family. :)
