Encouraged
I have to make a huge shout out to you....my peeps in the blogging world. You have made such a very difficult day so much better. I have no idea why this news today was so difficult for me. We have "been there and done that" before. Maybe that it why....I thought that we maybe would get the "easy" pass this time. And the fact that three amazing children have to spend even more time in a place that they have already been in for over two years.....it really just stinks all the way around. BUT, your comments and private e-mails have been such an encouragement to me today. So I just want to say thank you friends. Your support means more to me than words can say.

Sorry to hear about the news of waiting. We will keep the prayers coming!
I'm sorry to hear that both you and the children will have to wait.
God's timing is impeccable, sometimes it's not always in the time frame we long for, or even understand, but the Lord has brought you all to each other and it's only a matter of time before you and Daddio will be able to smother them with love!
I also wanted to say that your verse this morning (Philippians 4:6-7), one of my favorites, is just as relevant now as it was this morning. We will keep you in our prayers.

Oh Kristy..I missed your post about MOWA not issuing an opinion. We too thought our 2nd adoption would be grace-filled and easy, but it was exactly the opposite. I could go on and on, but know that God's plan is perfect. SOOOOO many incredible things happened to us the WEEK we were in Addis.....6 1/2 months AFTER our referral. I thought I'd lose my mind during that time, but it all came together. I wish you were closer so I could share our journey with you to know you are not alone!
I just found your blog after connecting from some others. Beautiful family. We had a court date for yesterday, but apparently the judges were in a meeting. It is rescheduled for early January, but I was so utterly stunned and saddened. Doing better today, but I'll pray for you as additional frustrations pop up. God bless.
Praying for the 14th. I cannot wait to see their picture :). Love, J
