Adoption Update

Just got back from vacation (that post is coming) and had some good news waiting for us at home. My case manager left a message that my dossier was shipped to Ethiopia on Monday! Whew. It made it through DC okay and arrived all in one piece to CWA. They approved it and it's off. It's really amazing how much time I spent preparing and worrying and praying over that and now it's gone, totally out of my hands. This is a new place for me to be. Not "doing" anything to speed along this process. I just have to sit and wait. We are number 14 on a waiting list for infant girls. CWA said the wait will probably be around 6-9 months. So...I'm trying to remind myself again about why I chose the title for my blog. There is no better place for me to be than right here where God has put me. I don't want to wish away this time with my boys. God created me the way I am to fulfill His plan for my life (which includes this wait). So, let me live and grow and praise you, Jesus, during this wait! I don't think it hurts to pray that it will go a little faster, though. :)
