3 Months Down!

We are counting the months until our son comes home. Three months down on the "waitlist." It feels so good to be waiting with a purpose. Tonight Scott and I watched a video of one of the government orphanages in Ethiopia. Wow, words cannot express the emotions that ran through me. My heart ached for those children. Every face represents a story, a situation, a heartache. Suddenly, I was reminded that our son could be in that orphanage right now. Our hearts are drawn to prayer for those who care for him each day. It also reminds us of the responsibility we have to love and pray for our children under our roof now. We long for the day our family will be united. We pray for God's grace to help us persevere, until our feet hit the soils of Africa and meet our son.
