Nothing to blog home about





Just wanted to blog that there is nothing to blog about. nothing. atleast as far as our adoption process is going. Life is going great. we are all doing well. We are plunging forward with still full expectations that the call to adopt will one day bring fruit...hence the photo above. I am that one with the balloon wrapped around my waist.
At this time, the country has come to a near complete halt with adoptions. The MOWA who has to write approval letters for each orphan has pretty much stopped writing letters. At one time, it was reported that they were writing nearly 50 letters per day. It went down to 5 last fall and it has pretty much stopped at this point except for special cases.
The rumor is that MOWA is restaffing and reorganizing. When they get up and running again, the hope is that adoptions will begin to move with a more speedy pace.
In the meantime, we wait.some more. ..but we wait with hope.
We are actually in the process of getting our fingerprints done again as they expire this summer. Hard to believe we are doing this AGAIN. As a matter of fact, Chris and I were so hopeful last year that it would be our LAST fingerprint appointment. Aaaahh but more plans the Lord has for us. oh well. What do we know? apparently not so much in our story. I know one day it will all make sense to us.
thankful to be alive today. Thankful that I am loved. Thankful that there is a future for me. plans for hope and prosperity. plans for good things. thankful for waking up today.
Let's get this day started!!!!
