Will you adopt again?

First off I would like to ask...how do you like the blog makeover?
I thought is was incredibly cute and if you know me very well, you know that I LOVE animal print.
This makeover took me at least two hours to figure out....blogger makes me nuts!
 
Anyways....
 
As this adoption is starting to look like it is coming to an end(I am not holding my breath), I have been asked if we will adopt again.
Honestly if I were a person looking from the outside in, I would think,"No way will they adopt again!  They would have to be nuts to do this over again!"
 
True
 
I feel like I must be nuts for wanting to do this again.
The truth is, Lord willing, we absolutely want to adopt again.
This has been the most difficult thing I have done in my life.
The pain that the wait has inflicted on me feels unbearable at times.
The heartache of years lost with my children is almost too much to take.
I am fairly certain the process is making me clinically insane.
 
But
 
I have never felt more spiritually rich in all my life!
I am beginning to enjoy the chaos.
God has opened my eyes and now that I have seen I can not do nothing!
God has made himself so real in these past couple of years, I can not help but want more...I need to see more of Him.
 
We are feeling the need to switch it up a bit though.
International adoption is a LONG journey full of unknowns and changes of plans.
So we were thinking perhaps we would adopt one domestically next time around.
Or maybe have a baby the old fashioned way next.
There is always the possibility that God will totally change our direction and we could end up having little Pehl kids on the other side of the world again.
 
Who knows which route we will take next.
It will be a surprise!
All I know is that as long as its God's will, we will continue to add to our family through adoption.
