BE AVAILABLE

I just updated the timeline for grace after I read
ODB ... Reach out to others in need.

Wondering if this is why we lost our first referral and
our timeline has been all over the place and our travel
approval is taking extra long..

So I continue to serve while waiting on TA.

Lord Jesus, We honor You as the Son of God
and Lord of glory who died for all.  Help us to
demonstrate Your love to others today.

WHAT'S IN YOUR BURDEN ?

Sometimes our burdens are heavy,
Sometimes they are added to an already heavy burden load,
Cast your burdens on Him..

Right now, I feel like the salmon who is trying to swim up stream
against the current that is trying to knock you back down stream..

ugg the trenches right now are deep

MOTHERS DAY

     
For my mother, we try to get together the day after with her
for lunch. This year it will be dinner because I am homeschooling
2 children and Rebekah needing 24/7 care. I did have a 3 hour lunch
with my oldest daughter today. It was nice to catch up.

My faith has been shaky lately.  I am struggling with our
new daughter's file. Feeling like we were given hope but then it was
taken away with the update we just received.   And I know she is worthy
of  a family, she needs love and to get her needs met and to learn about
our wonderful Father !  uggg            why isn't this easy.

LID

Official LID 5/3   ( our dossier log in date )

I have not posted much lately because we have been going thru
some rough times lately..
So, prayer for our family... He knows our struggles.

APPROVAL

wow, we received our I800A approval today !!


working on our dossier.

MARCH

March has lots of birthdays. My mom, my oldest daughter and my soon to
be youngest daughter and one of my younger sisters and my uncle and
my niece's son.          HAPPY BIRTHDAYS

March will also be the month that I remember my sister who passed
away on the 6th.   She will be greatly missed. xoxo

March is when we received a RFE ( request for evidence) from USCIS
for our I-800A. Someone didn't write enough info about our 20 year old son
who lives with us in our home study .... UGGGgg
And now we are at a stand still because I can not get the paper they want because
I am leaving for my sisters funeral.   He's got this




             
 
This is where we are TODAY.. Just below Portland in pink area.
Blizzard warnings, And the storm has a name Stella
And more snow for this weekend.


Truthfully, I am very overwhelmed right now.

NEW HOPE

SHOW HOPE / NEW HOPE - KIDS WAITING FOR FAMILIES
Here are the precious children in the care of Show Hope / New Hope who are currently available for adoption. These children have varying ages and special needs, but the biggest need of each one is a family. They are loved dearly by their nannies and nurses and provided access to important medical care and surgeries through the Show Hope / New Hope program while they are waiting for their forever families.
There are many adorable children in the care of Show Hope / New Hope, but not all of them are paper ready. I'll keep this list as up to date as I can with those who are available for adoption. Show Hope / New Hope plays no role in if or when a child becomes available for adoption.
