We are going to get our kiddos!

This whole process has been about miracles.

Watching them happen...
identifying them as I see them...
being in awe that I get to be the recipient of the blessings.

So, of course the end of the waiting would be no different!

It's a long story, and some details are personal,
but suffice it to say...
we will be leaving for Ethiopia on
APRIL 7!!
We land on Easter Sunday!

I've got a LOT to do
in the next...
(counting...)
*gasp!*
NINE DAYS!!

I'm working on things today...
but mostly...
I'm just so thankful
that this part can finally be over!!

We ARE coming, sweet kiddos!!

4/9/12...
and you are ours forever!

It will be amazing and a blessing AND, as you know, there will be some very hard days and seasons in the next year or two and I just wanted you to know that I would ALWAYS love to talk, listen and pray with and for you if you ever need it (from someone who has been there!) Please don't hesitate to seek me out via a blog comment or email! We will be praying for you!
