Friday we found out that our paperwork had arrived at the CIS office and they are working on our I171H. We are hoping that means we will have it in our hands this week. ALSO....our agency is expecting referrals any day now - SO EXCITING!!! I am hoping and praying that Julie & Jenna (#1 & #2 on the referral list) will get the news they have been waiting for and finally put a sweet little face with Lovey & Ella!!! Although we know that this is all in God's timing, we also know that things are starting to move along in the Tay Ninh province and referrals should start coming in!

Oh, little girl, your life was planned, You came to us from a far away land, Right from the start from the Father's hand, He fashioned your frame in ways so grand, And loves you in ways you don't understand. And though we've yet to hold your tiny frame, You've captured our hearts & we long to call your name. We thank God for you, a gift so sweet and pure, And pray for you, to know His Son for sure. And as you grow, may you always know The Lord is there wherever you go. We promise to love you thru' all your days and hours, But never forget, His love is far greater than ours. Our Father's Son, He freely gave And all who believe, He surely will save. Oh, little girl, we're all adopted at so great a price, But as God's little girl, you're adopted twice. © Paul W. Smith

Miracle
We witness a miracle everytime a child enters the world. But those who make their journey home across time and miles, growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them, are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us by God's very own hands. Kristi Larson
