Waiting...

I just have to talk to y'all about these three beautiful girls! 

My prayer is that someone 

will be driven to them and will commit to bringing

them home,

to show them unconditional love,

to be their's forever. 

DH is a beautiful 13 year old girl.

She will only be available for adoption until November of this year. 

She is a beautiful, healthy child!

Her file is on the shared list and is not agency specific.

Sweet Susana!

She holds my heart probably because she looks just like

our beautiful Jorja! 

And she is from her same orphanage. 

Susana is listed with Lifeline 

And be-still-my-heart Ramona! 

Ramona is also listed with Lifeline

Search your heart -

stop and ask God, 

is one or two of these your little girl?

Will you be willing to give her a chance?

Please let me know if you have any questions!

This precious face...

Some times there is a child that God places in your path -

and you wonder and ask -

what am I to do for this child?

After talking with our adoption agency today -

I want to introduce you to a special little girl!

We need to find her forever family!

Susana is 7 years old and has waited entirely too long
to be someones daughter.

She has waited to long to be told 

how beautiful she is.

She has waited to long for daily hugs from

her momma and daddy 

and maybe even siblings!

She lives in the same orphanage Jorja is from.

This little girl reminds me soooooo 

much of Jorja.

(below is Jorja 4 years ago)

They look alike, 

and from our adoption coordinator who met her 

last year -

they have similar personalities.

Sweet, silly, curious, love people,

ready to play,

and wants to be loved. 

"Susana" is on the Waiting Child list with 

Lifeline Children Services,

if you would like to learn more about her -

please contact Mallory.

She would love to share more about this 

special girl with you. 

I sit in A.W.E.!

AWE defined by Dictionary.com:

an overwhelming feeling of reverence, admiration, fear, etc., 

produced by that which is grand, sublime, extremely powerful,  

or the like: in awe of God;

God is grand, sublime,

extremely powerful

and you know what He did yesterday?

He allowed man to work quickly, 

man to work thoroughly,

and 

the red tape 

(at least this "red tape" is no longer an issue.)

I received an email yesterday from our agency,

that the investigation is over 

for these three very special boys.
We are saddened that their biological families are still 

not able to care for them,

but they will not be going into foster care,

and

the boys are again available for adoption!

They are three sweet, healthy, incredible boys,

with huge smiles, and beautiful hearts!

They are 8, 9, and 10 year olds.

(they are not siblings so we are not looking for

one family for all of them, 

but 3 individual families)

Please pray with us as we search for their families! 

If you would be interested in hearing about them 

please comment or email me,

I'd love to chat about them and hook you up 

with our agency coordinator who 

can give you more information.

I sooo wish I could post photos of them - 

believe me you would fall in love too!

Prayer needed!

I know that I have mentioned these three special guys in Ethiopia.

Three, beautiful, little guys who sit waiting for their families to 

find them.
(I sooooo wish I could share their photos with y'all)

These guys are incredibly special to us -

and we have tried to speak up for them and

share with friends about them,

but at this time we are not able to advocate for them. 

They are caught in the midst of red tape.

Ohhh how I despise red tape!

Depending on the results of the investigations on these 

three guys could result in -

1) their birth families are now in a position bring them back home -

which is of course, the best case scenario.

2) they are placed in foster care in Ethiopia, 

3) they are once again eligible for International Adoption.

*********

I'm telling y'all this because

we need your prayers! 

These sweet guys don't understand why they don't have a family

coming to meet them,

hugging on them,

leaving them photos of a house,

and pets,

a family of their own.

No one ever comes back just for them.

I can't imagine how this feels -

it breaks my heart as I am in tears every time I think of them.

Instead they continue to watch their friends leave

with their new families.

Please pray with us for these guys, 

they need to be encouraged,

they need hope.

Please pray that these investigations will be thorough, quick and smooth.

Please pray that God's will be done in the lives of these sweet boys.

Little Munchkins!

My heart stops when I look at these faces!
I can't stand it!

Look at this sweet face!


What a sweet boy!



Oh, and this smile is just too much for me!
Can't you just hear him giggle!

Wouldn't it be great to see these little guys
with their forever family by next Christmas?
