I realize that it has been a really long time since Matt and I have posted, but who wants to read "still doing paperwork" for several months on end. But today it has changed, Matt took the paperwork to work to mail today. YEA! One step closer.
It took a little longer because we waited for me to get out of school and Matt to take a day off work. We had to get fingerprinted again and do some background checks again, that required some running around. Hard to do when you have to be at work. But it is done and I can sigh and wait for Suzie to call. (new social worker at new agency)
So, now we wait again.
Sunday, I turned 35 and it was hard. Not because I feel old, although the gray hair and wrinkles are getting more abundant everyday. But because I just thought I would be somewhere completely different in my life right now. I had my moments on Sunday when the tears came all too easliy, but my wonderful husband was there to help me through and I prayed alot. I know that Matt and I are travelling this road for a reason and we might not understand now or ever on this earth why, but it is only for a season and there will be an end, hopefully a very happy one.=)
So, Matt and I are reminding each other of all the good that is in our lives and all the wonderful things we have been blessed with. Like wonderful, wonderful, family and friends who have been a HUGE support. They show us almost daily how much they care for us and are there for us. For that we are thankful. We have a home, clothes and food. And a wonderul little dog, Daisy, to make us laugh and say "aw, how cute is that". And we have hope that someday we will say that about our children. We just have to remember to give control to God on daily basis, probably really hourly or every minute or second if we are truly honest. And wait...
Jer. 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
