Here we go again!

It has been a long time since I last blogged.  Almost another year has passed.  I have found blogging to be low on the list of things I need/want to do, but am excited to get back to it again.  Hopefully, something will appear at least once a week.  And, I am feeling more inspired now that the blog has been given a much needed makeover.  I hope to continue to work on it - that is if I can figure out how!  

One of the biggest reasons for getting back into blogging is that after much thought, consideration, and prayer we find ourselves beginning another adoption!  This time around we have decided to pursue domestic infant adoption.  There were numerous factors that led to this decision, and we are excited to see what the Lord has in store.

Since December we have been working on our home study, which is now complete!  We are waiting on a few things to come back, but everything on our end is finished.  We have to now make a photo book about our family to serve as our family profile for potential birth mothers to view.  Once we have our home study and photo book in hand, we can officially sign with our agency and begin waiting.  Our hope and prayer is that we will add to our family within the next year.

When you think of us, your prayers for this process are greatly appreciated.  While we don't know what this child will look like, what background they may have, or what their journey to us will include, our trust is in God's sovereignty to lead us to the child planned long ago for our family. He is good and knows best and we wait with hope.
