Well I have been waiting for this day to start a blog, and today is the day. Today our homestudy to adopt a child from Ethiopia was approved. And so now I finally feel like it is official. And therefore, the blog begins. This has been such a process for me already - primarily emotional at this point - more on that later, but the blogs I have read during this time have been such a blessing to me, that I too want to share our journey and pray that it will be a blessing and inspiration to those who read it. So as I begin, simply, I ask Lord, that you will let my written words bring you glory and that I may bless others in the ways they have blessed me. "He is before all things, and in Him, all things hold together."
