One Day at a Time

We have been praying...and praying about the possibility of a domestic adoption while we are still pursuing D.R.C. adoption and have decided that God is saying no for right now.

We just don't have the money which means we can't do it.

 

God did open up another door for us....

Foster care.

We thought about foster care before but Arizona had a law that kept us from pursuing it.

The state of AZ recently changed that law which means we can be foster parents.

I think sometime in the next year we will get licensed as it will be easier to get through all of those classes now than when we have bunch of kids.

As of right now we are not thinking we want to accept a placement before Isryelle and Boaz come home.

 

When we first changed our direction to adopt from the D.R.C. we though God would move the process along quickly.

I guess we figured we had already been through so much waiting, it just made sense.

As silly as it sounds, I am surprised that we are not further along in the process than we are.

Things seem to be falling apart in the Congo.

Adoptive parents are facing one delay after another.

Gavin and I still have faith that our process could move faster than we ever expected.

We are also trying to prepare ourselves for the possible situation of our process taking longer than we ever expected.

 

None of the political issues going on in Congo effect our adoption process.

God controls our situation!

If He wanted those kids home today, they would be here.

They will not be in our arms a day early or a day late.

 

For now, we will not be adding anymore little Pehl's to the family.

We will keep praying and take this thing day by day...you never know what tomorrow might bring!
