Sweet Girl

Remember that sweet girl from Ukraine we hosted for three weeks over Christmas?

Well... she's the reason I haven't spent much time blogging lately. Or rather, filling out paper work for her adoption has been keeping us rather busy. Did you catch that?

WE ARE ADOPTING IRINA!

I am thrilled and excited to finally announce the news. We've been pretty quiet about our journey, but oh what an exciting journey it has been. I hope that over the next few weeks I'll be able to carve out time to bear witness to how God has been at work. He has been at work in so many ways!!! I'll be blogging over at Our Christmas Guest to share the story of our last four months to keep a record of God's faithfulness. We are hoping to travel to Ukraine and bring her home this summer, so the count down is on. Can you believe it? I am nesting like crazy. ;)

Will you join us in praying as we prepare for this special girl to become a part of our family? Will you pray for Irina as she waits for us? She knows we are coming and has accepted our offer to become a part of our family. Will you pray for her safety and protection these next few months? Will you pray for us as we complete final paper work and training? Thank you in advance for praying. Can't wait to blog more soon!
