Did I share I love to garden- actually new life in our home is always welcome-- plants, animals and of course a child
A friend asked for an update on our adoption- we have submitted all of our documents to USCIS... acutally the NBC in Missouri. They are the US gov't entity who approves our homestudy and gives us a document we need to adopt our children. We need just the one document and then we send the rest of our dossier over to Bulgaria. It then is translated and submitted. We will then be given our dates to travel....It is an easier process than our adoptions from Ukraine and Russia so far. Especially since we already have requested or are registered for our 2 kids. We were fingerprinted April 17 and we were told it can take up to 3 months or as little as a month to get this. We have a peace about the timing as we continue to see the Lord's hand in our lives and His provision. Someone has consistently given us at least 100 dollars every week and as much as 130... thank you for helping us to bring Gracie Jane and Andrew home....
Jeane, Wonderful SO happy all is going well! I was bummed I miss you at the chat the other night. Thanks for the update. We are praying for Gracie Jane and Andrew!
ReplyDeleteLove the names Jeane. :)
ReplyDeleteGardening so reminds me of parenting. Those tender shoots that come up, the weeds try to strangle the work being done, but one by one are pulled by the roots and the plant flourishes under tender loving care. :)
Actually great analogy Christie.. I am the keynote speaker at our Mother Daughter Banquet this year... I will use it if you don't mind. The theme is "God's Garden-What Are You Planting ?"...
