Day 1

Friday, April 15, 2011. Tax Day;)

Also the day we sent in an application to MLJ adoption agency! We hope to get started
as soon as we are accepted and get the ball rolling...

I am feeling very hopeful and thankful for so many things and also so emotional.

I started praying for our Bulgarian child. I know it sounds crazy to some, but I feel that
our child is already conceived, growing in some woman's womb. Whether she knows it  or not,
whether she knows what she is going to do with him/her when they come, whether this has happened
to her before or she is growing a baby for the first time- I know that this baby will find
a loving home in the end, and that God is already in control of everything!

So I pray for this mother, for this baby, and for all the steps that must be taken to
bring our child home!


*"We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life.  But those who
make their journey home across time & miles, growing within the hearts of
those who wait to love them, are carried on the wings of destiny and placed
among us by God's very own hands."  Kristi Larson
