Waiting is the hardest part...

Most of our friends and family know that we were called almost three weeks ago and told that we had been chosen as the adoptive parents of a beautiful baby girl. This news was beyond joyful! We have a beautiful and miraculous child who fills our life with so much love and laughter...so to be blessed with another little girl...that is just absolutely delightful.

Many of you know that we had a failed adoption at the beginning of the year and that was pure heartache, but we know that it was not God's will, not His timing nor was it the child that was meant to be ours. I have come to realize many things through my journey through life thus far...but the one thing that means the most to me is the fact that I do not want to have anything, gain anything or be anything that isn't in His plan, His script...His road-map for my life. Our struggles, battles, hills and valleys with Bugs health have been torturous at times, but they have caused me to fall on my face in complete surrender to God. There is nowhere to go besides the Lord when you are facing storms that have to do with your child.

So here we are...news that is amazing and wonderful...but there are bumps...big and small. However, God knows what is right for our family and He knows what this precious miracle needs. Regardless of how much we already love her...He loves her infinitely more than we do. We have to trust in His mighty plan and wait. Waiting is the hardest part. Wait for no. Wait for yes. Whatever His plan is...trusting it is the key. God doesn't have a plan of calamity for us, He knows the desires of my heart and He knows what is best for this precious little girl we hope will be our daughter.

Whatever His plan is...we are trusting Him, praising Him and waiting.
