Behind the "8" ball



Behind the "8" ball...
what does it mean for those of us who haven't played a lot of pool?...
Fig. in trouble; in a weak or losing position, can not be touched without penalty.

So last month was "8 is great"...but this month it doesn't feel so great to get the same number again.

Its more than just the same number for this month, its doing our 5th round of fingerprinting for this adoption alone (always remember adoptive friends are the safest people you know), its trying to update all of our homestudy paperwork (3rd time for this adoption), feeling so annoying to ask our references to update all of their letters, its going through Mother's Day feeling like you are missing your baby and having no idea when you will ever be able to bring her home...hmmm...

So we continue to wait with faith and in the strength of our Lord, 
He has been so faithful in the past and will continue to be.

And in His faithfulness...we have had a crazy-busy month to keep our minds off of the wait...and as soon as I get the chance to download the pictures from the whole month...I will share the fun!

  3. Sorry. Waiting is so exhausting and can be peace stealing. Praying you feel the joy of the Lord continually in the wait.
