5 months AND 5 days waiting!

Time is ticking on...

According to the recent referrals handed out by our agency, it looks like we should receive our referral in mid March to the end of March. However, we have learned in this crazy but wonderful journey that ANYTHING can happen.  7-9 months is still the time frame given by AWAA.  I am not anxious about the arrival of our daughter.  God knows the exact time we will receive our "call" announcing the great news!  I am trusting in his perfect plan!

I am reading this awesome book call Cold Tangerines by Shauna Niequist.  It has been a true blessing to me.  "Cold Tangerines is a collection of stories about God, and about life, and about the thousands of daily ways in which an awareness of God changes and infuses everything.  It offers bright and varied glimpses of hope and redemption, giving us room to breathe, to break down and break through, calling us to our best possible lives."  I encourage you to pick up a copy today.

Please continue praying for us.  Pray for Ava, wherever she may be that God will prepare her precious life to be molded with ours.  

Blessings!
