Yes, I know it's Wednesday, I just didn't get home early enough last night to post. :-)
Last night we were excited to go to a children's consignment sale in Louisville. We looked at furniture, strollers, carseats, highchairs, and the like, but ended up coming home without making a purchase. Still, it was fun to actually be able to shop for those things! We know that a match could come more quickly than we anticipate, but for now we're waiting patiently. On a frustrating note, there was some misunderstanding with our home study, and as of today (over a week later), we still have not received a copy. That is delaying our application process for grants and loans.
We are super, super, super excited for our friends Chuck and Abby!!! (http://robinsonaddition.blogspot.com/) They found out on Friday that they have been matched with two children in Ethiopia. We can't wait to meet Layla and Ezekiel!
We are also thrilled that our friends Bo and Tara (and Colby & Kallee) have finally been able to move into their house. (http://thecracrafts.tumblr.com/) They've been an inspiration as they've walked through the decision to live life more simply, and we know Pradero will be a wonderful home for them.
My little sister Molly left for Los Angeles last weekend. I'm very excited to see what God has planned for her as she follows her talents to the west coast. And I'm secretly hoping she makes the connections she needs to quickly so that she can come back closer to home! I pray that she will find a church and group of friends quickly - people who will encourage her both spiritually and in her music endeavors.
Hope Church broke ground for the playground this week! Absolutely cannot wait for the kiddos to have a fun and safe place to play outside. Hope also celebrated its 12th birthday last weekend, and we've ceratinly been blessed to be a part of that family for the past four years.
Hope the next post brings exciting adoption news! Until then...
