Wait for it, wait for it ...
I can't stand to hold it in any longer, it's true, we are growing our family through adoption from Ethiopia. We are overwhelmed with so many emotions but most importantly we know that this is what God has called our family to and we fully trust Him. Nervous, excited, unsure, anxious, hopeful, how many emotions are we suppose to have at one time? And the paperwork holy cow the paperwork! So glad that we have led simple law abiding lives (for the most part). Anyone that has traveled this road before us knows how overwhelming it can be. We look forward to the journey!! We will have MANY more posts as we move along. Thank you for sharing this with us!
