We should be receiving our foster care license any day now. And we wait... waiting on God... trusting He wants the best for us. We are confident in God's timing. It is difficult to prepare since we don't know who will come through our door. When a women is pregnant they know how to prepare the room/clothes/toys ahead of time since they know the age and approximate size of the baby:) But the size, age, gender and number of babies/kids will be a wonderful surprise to us. We may ask for lots of last minute help to get things in order. The anticipation is building and we can't wait.
Who knows, maybe a baby by Christmas???......

I wish I lived closer so I could give you a literal helping hand. Just know that I want to help in any way that I can. Love you guys and waiting patiently with you!
ReplyDeleteso exciting, and very appropriate for Advent season - waiting, gestating, longing, not knowing exactly what's coming but knowing that something is definitely on the way. may God meet you in the darkness ... blessings to you both!
ReplyDeleteChris and JJ,
ReplyDeleteI wonder if this is how, as Christians, we should all be waiting on the return of Jesus? Not to sound all spiritual and stuff, but He tells us to be ready, but we don't know the "day or the hour". I think you have much to teach us all through this experience. Blessings and peace.
What an incredible thing you are doing, giving a forever family to a child who so desperately wants one!!!!
