Proverbs 3:5

In the very first bible that I received from my parents, this was the verse that mom had written on the inside cover. Proverbs 3:5 "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding." Over the 20 years that I have been a Christian, I have klung to this verse many times. Today Travis and I received notice from the adoption agency, that a couple has left the agency and therefore there is an opening for the earlier class in June. This is a true blessing. What this means is that we now get to attend the Home Study preparation class in June and we do not have to wait for October. This is a mandatory class that is only offered 2-3 times a year but is a pre-requiste to being considered as adoptive parents. (since this is a small agency there is really no need to offer the class more than 2 times a year, they were thinking that this year they may have to hold 3 classes) Needless to say, we are THRILLED! When you have such a desire as ours, the difference between June and October means the world. We are so excited and thank you all for your supportive e-mails, letters, and most of all your prayers! God is good and in His timing we KNOW we will be blessed with a baby.

Kay, it was good to see you at Luke's birthday party. Preston and I dealt with fertility issues and I know how frustrating the whole issue can be- I am so glad to hear that you are feeling at peace about your decision to adopt! What an exciting time and blessing that you can be praying for the baby that God is going to place in your life! Can't wait to read more about your journey!
