Special verse I needed to hear

Right this moment, take that worry that is eating away at you like a rapidly growing cancer and turn it over to HIM. Refuse to brood over it any longer! Cast aside doubt and fear and leave it all with Him. (Charles Swindoll)

Hear my prayer, O Lord; listen to my cry for mercy. In the day of my trouble I will call to you for you will answer me. Ps 86:6-7

Docs mailed back to agency

Last night Kevin and I were up til 12:00am filling out volumes of papers to get our homestudy going. Wow, we should do this in our sleep. What a sweetheart my husband is. I truly adore him. The one thing he hates is when I suffer. That just eats at him. The minute a tear comes out of my eye he gets upset. Probably I don't cry a whole lot but seem to have more so since I have been adopting. Really it like being pregnant. Always hormonal. So as I was sitting over all these papers, Kevin knowing I don't like to sit on my papers, we did it together.

I needed him to fill out pages of personal data about himself. I had to do it too. The only thing I didn't mail back to them today is the I600A and the I600. This is really cool the way they do it. I just fill them out and they do the rest from forwarding it to immigrations to get it all back and even when the child is identified they do it all.

Received DVD and initial papers

Wow. I was told it would take about 2 weeks to hear back but I received my DVD of the waiting children today and several papers to complete for the beginning stage. The DVD was great. Lots of children on there I liked. It's just too hard to get attached to any because I couldn't claim them until all my homestudy and dossier is ready.

This Picture stole my Heart for Ethiopia

Thanks a lot Joy, it's all your fault! Just kidding. Miss Joy sent me this picture one night when I was down in the dumps after hearing more bad news about my adoptions. She is not available so don't get any wrong ideas.
