Answered Prayer


Ahem*Ahem*  ATTENTION EVERYBODY! 

Matthew and I finally have the answer to our prayers!  What have we been praying exactly?  We've been praying that God direct us to the ONE agency that has our baby.  We've been praying that He show us where to go & how to get there.  PRAYER ANSWERED!  We will be working with the Adoption Network to adopt our chocolate baby.  You can see the details on that & how we found the Adoption Network by going here.  It was amazing how God shut the other doors & opened wide this one.  It was mind blowing how one day we were questioning how this would happen & the next God has provided.  We serve a mighty God.  He is good.

So, here is how things should go from here on out:
  • We have submitted our application & agreement
  • They process and set up our account
  • Media consultants will contact us & put us online as "active" adoptive parents
  • We wait to be matched
  • Match
  • Baby!!!

The amazing thing is, once we are online, our wait time to a match can be hours to three months.  In other words...It's fast.  We are so excited to bring our baby home & we pray that God continue to provide the last few dollars we need.  Literally...we are less then $6,000 away from being 100% ready.  So would you mind praying for us and baby?  We pray we are ALWAYS in God's will regarding our adoption.  We pray we are matched (quickly!) and we pray that our finances allow us to move forward quickly & easily.

Friends, if this post seems slightly eratic & hair brained it's because I'm so happy.  The paperwork is done, the decisions have been made.  95% of our adoption is fully paid for.  Our home is ready.  Hubby is ready.  Puppy Mo?  He's not really ready but that's okay, he'll get used to it =)....and I am ready.  Hurry up and find us, Baby O'Brien!  We are so ready to smother you in love!
