The Beginning of this Journey...

The Lord began this journey towards our second adoption about 1 year ago. He put on our hearts to sponsor Kay - at Harmony Outreach and we did. When i first saw her, i fell in love with her and prayed for her to join our family. It wasn't until May 2008 that the Lord began to use her to open our hearts to adoption again. That was when we had John Bentley from Harmony Outreach (her foster program) staying with us and he told us that Kay was ready to be adopted internationally. We prayed about her and began the adoption process again. Unfortunately, it wasn't in God's plan for her to join our family but He did use her to open our hearts up to adoption again and we are excited to see where He takes us. We are Trusting in Him.

The Lord has brought Maylynn into our lives and hearts on Nov. 21st (that is when we received her referral). We are excited to see Him bring her home to us. Please pray for the rest of our journey. We can't wait to bring Maylynn home...

I 800 approval confirmed!

Praise -Praise - Praise:)

Our agency emailed the NBC and was able to confirm that our approval was sent to the NVC (National Visa Center) this morning. Now we wait for it to be scanned and sent electronically (apparently this is called "being cabled" - it sounds like email to me??? oh well) to the China Consulate in Guangzhou. This is where it meets up with our Chinese LOA and DS230 to become the "Article 5" (another LOA) - then we get to wait for our TA (Traval Approval)

Still praying for quick paperwork processing and an update...

BTW - Thanks to everyone for the encouragement - it really means alot:) They are ALL so awesome but this one hit me tonight - I'd like to it...

Habbakuk 2:1-3-(Message Bible)
What’s God going to say to my
questions? I’m braced for the worst.
I’ll climb to the lookout
tower and scan the horizon. I’ll wait to see what
God says, how
he’ll answer my complaint.
And then God answered: “Write this.
Write what
you see.
Write it out in big block letters
So that it can be seen on the
run.
This vision-message is a witness
Pointing to what’s coming.
It
aches for the coming-it can hardly wait!
And it doesn’t lie.
If it seems
slow in coming, wait.
It’s on its way. It will come right on
time.


This is so true - I know this is true - it was true with Hayleigh and i've known it to be true with Maylynn - but i just want to bring her home where we can start loving on her - my heart is aching for her...
