I just found out about Karyn Purvis and have added her website to my list on the right. She has some great insights and I am enjoying listening to the audios or watching the videos of her speaking about the topic of adoption. I'm thankful that God has given us more time to learn and grow.
At Hand in Hand (an adoption support group) on Friday, we watched one of her full length videos on KIds from Hard Places. It showed how she works with these kids at a camp especially for them. Wow!
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

The Journey Continues
. . . and gets more exciting.
We got a call last week about a sibling group. Could this be it?
Besides trusting God, there were alot of things that needed to happen around here if that were a possibility. They were wanting to get them placed within a week.
The trundle beds had to be finished with drawers in place. The garage cleaned up and alot of clutter removed. Messes organized. Whew! We were tired. We had let some of these things slip, because "Hey, it's been almost 2 years." Not that I'm complaining. I am trusting in God's perfect timing.
Hannah and Josiah were very excited about the possiblility of having a little brother and little sister.
We did alot of praying and waiting.
Finally we heard that the state was going to try to place them with the grandmother.
Disappointment mixed with relief.
Okay, now we are at least a bit more prepared than we were before.
Which is a good thing, since we were just notified of another sibling group that just became free for adoption with no legal risk.
