Over the last 6 months adoption has permeated our household discussions. One day Aaron announced that we should name his sister Madison. Rivaling his brother, Luke declared that her name should be Addison. The boys have made a fun game of jokingly teasing each other. Often at bed time, we tell the boys stories of the future when their sister will be home with us. (We all love her so much already, and we don't even know if she's been born yet!) On one of the stories the boys declared that we should just adopt twins. Yes, we certainly have enough love for two... And after all, we have a mini van! I spoke to our agency and was told that twins in our program is very rare. Nonetheless, we have stated in our home study that we would like to adopt twins! Of course it may never happen; however, you never know.
In the meantime, we are hoping to finish our dossier in the next couple of weeks which will officially place us on the waiting list for a little girl (or girls). Additionally, we have applied for two grants and have two more to complete. We remain excited about this chapter in our lives, all the while knowing that our journey has just begun while we trust in His faithfulness.
Psalm 36:5
Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens,
your faithfulness to the skies.
