ANGELS

WONDERING

Found myself  looking at HOPE's photo. Wondering if she is hungry?
Has she said her first word yet?  Are all her medical needs being met ?
Does she have anyone to play with ?  Is anyone protecting her ?
Has anyone hugged her today and said  "I love you " ?
OK, now my tears are falling.
Our little HOPE, you have a family that will do all these things with you
and more, we just need to bring you home.

Praying for things to start moving in India.    FAITH !

I have two craft fairs set up possibly three.  Making angels.
When I get my camera back I will post pictures.
Ta, ta for now   (too much pooh)

HOPE

It has been a busy week @ our house.  I am taking drivers
education again. Well actually Au is but every morning
I am being told how to drive and what I am
doing wrong.  Bad habits stay with you forever.
Eventually it will be a good thing.
I am currently working on getting into some craft fairs
in the area.


Update: We might not have to wait until December
to get our dossier ready..gives me a little hope and still
alot of faith that we will bring another daughter home,
just not when we want it to happen.

SONGS

Really listening to the words in songs.

We were made to be courageous.......
To act justly,  to love mercy and  to walk humbly with your
God.   

I refuse to sit around and wait for someone else to do what
God called me  to do myself.....

If we are the body.. what are our hands, feet and mouths doing ??
Especially Casting Crowns songs


Update (should be downdate):  seems that our adoption worker
no longer works for our agency anymore.  Deja vu, this happened
last adoption. (both agencies) I am trying so hard to pray instead of
getting upset, have faith.  In HIS timing not mine.
We did get our biometrics taken today.

AMAZING OPPORTUNITY

We kicked around the idea of going to the Steven Curtis Chapman
Concert and finally decided we could not afford to go.  And then get
the opportunity to volunteer for showHOPE was just a blessing. It was
an awesome evening talking to other families about adoption. I feel that
God had a hand in that opportunity and that some good ministries might
come out of that opportunity.   I am still in awe of the whole evening !


Not to mention that Dave and I got to get some mom and Dad time
to just talk about everything.  we talked so much that we
(Dave, the driver)  forgot to put gas in the car.    ha,ha
And it is now OK that I signed my husband up for this.


Be a glow in the dark person, let your light shine for others to see.

                  

NOT A RUMOR

Well. India  is not looking at Dossiers until December.
What am I suppose to be doing while I wait ?
finding hearts for ORPHANS @ the concert.
finding hearts for ORPHANS in Maine?
finding hearts to support adoption in Maine ?

also fund raising for our adoption.



Whoever shuts their ears to the cry of the poor will also cry out
and not be answered.  Proverbs 21:13        OUCH !

SCC CONCERT

Really want to go to the Steven Curtis Chapman Concert in Mass.
Oct.9th.  So when they put on facebook that they still needed
volunteers for the concert. I signed Da and me up to be volunteers.
So today I received an email.... WE ARE VOLUNTEERS !!
WOHOO ! 

MISSED OPPORTUNITY

I missed a chance to do a fundraiser yesterday because of
miscommunication. But I do not think standing in the pouring
rain for 3 hours would of been a great idea..   Still bummed.
I did have a great time going out to lunch with other church moms.


UPDATE: still waiting to hear from the orphanage

RUMOR: daughters country, not looking @ dossiers until December ?
truthfully my first reaction was NOT AGAIN, but then I though it is ok,
not my timing but HIS..      here comes that patience word again
