I want her to know that I am so excited for her....and a little envious (in a good way if there is such a thing). You see, in a few short days she and her husband will be boarding a plane for several hours to fly around the world to bring home their boys. She has waited for this day for years, literally. I know the "process" to adopt the boys began nearly 2 year ago, but I know the process began in their hearts long before then. I can only imagine her world right now. Even though there has been so much time, it never fails there is always more to do. Preparing her house, tidying up things for work, as an accountant it also happens to be the busiest time of year, not to mention the countless other loose ends that need to be tied. So, my dear, right now I pray. I pray for you, for your husband, for your two boys. I pray for the tasks you need to accomplish and the ones you don't. I pray for the traveling, the meeting, the return. I pray for your emotions which I'm sure are running a million miles an hour. No, you're not crazy. You are filled with so much love. Thank you for being an example to me, to others. Thank you for loving these orphans. Thank you for committing to take care of them as your own. Thank you for allowing us to join you in the next chapter and adventure of your lives. Thank you for Glowing with the love of Jesus.
And so, I continue to Thank God every time I remember you.
And I pray.
And if you're reading this now, won't you pray too....
and to my friend--you know who you are--I love you!
Go & Get You're Boys!!!!!
