Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Here I am again asking for prayers for our adoption. Since posting this prayer request we have learned that our very good friends who are also adopting from China (same agency as well) received their paperwork from China yesterday. They only had to wait 73 days and we are over 150 days.

I know God has a plan and is still in control. Right now, though, I'm having a really hard time believing and trusting in that.

Please pray. My heart is just breaking.

OH MY GOODNESS!!!

Our agency just called and said our paperwork is on it's way to us this week!!!    I can't believe it! We'll probably be able to travel in late March or early April to bring Rachel home!!! That still seems like a long time but there is more paperwork involved and Chinese New Year and all. But at least I know it's really happening!!

Thank you all for the prayers. Please keep them coming until she is safely home in our arms.
