Hard day...

Today was the day Emilee was going to come home with us, so it was rough. We were pretty sad today. Please continue to pray for a quick resolve. Our adoption agency has still not heard a word from the birth parents since last Friday. They have left several messages, but are getting no return phone calls.

Our hearts our heavy to hear something, anything...

We are also praying for God's hope and a future and no harm for Emilee Grace!! (Thank you to all who have e-mailed this verse to us, while we were fasting it was put strongly on our hearts)

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT, we have been flooded with e-mails, phone calls. cards and prayers. We are so appreciative.

Still waiting...

I for sure will be updating this BLOG with any major news, so keep checking for updates. We have still heard nothing yet. Scott and I do feel more and more peace, so thank you for continuing to lift us up in prayer.

Our journey continues

THANK YOU THANK YOU thank you to ALL of you who have stood with us, cried with us, covered us with prayer, responded for us, took care of things for us, blessed us with kind words, thoughts, and actions...we are overwhelmed and humbled by the love of the body of Christ and by everyone is our lives. We have people praying in several different countries and all over America, wow that is awesome. We feel peace because of how prayed for we have been and how encouraged we have been by all of you!!

There is no new news to report. The social worker is trying to get a hold of the birth mom to hear how she is feeling now and has been unable to get in touch with her. Emilee is still in foster care with an amazing pastor's wife as the foster care mom. The birth father is still at a 10 for how sure he is of wanting to go through with the adoption, which we are encouraged by.

We stand assured that with all the prayers that are going forward God's good and perfect and pleasing will WILL BE DONE!

The things we are asking most for prayer for are: a quick decision and resolve to this, that the birth parents would make the best and right decision-we truly connected with the birth parents and care for them and understand this is a huge decision for them as well. We want what would be best for everyone involved.

Continue to pray for peace and strength for us as we wait in the balance.

Hard Day...

We got some hard news today, our social worker called us and let us know that the birth mom is having some hard days with lots of emotion and some outside counsel and is reconsidering her decision. The birth mom has not yet signed the papers to get a court date.

So please pray, to be honest we are not sure how to pray, we want God's will to be done above all else, but we have a lot of feelings and emotions. We are scared and yet know God holds this all in His hand.

Please pray

I just want to reiterate to please stand with us in prayer about this whole situation. There are many emotions in everyone involved.
