Let's add some more.........

So, it has been a busy couple of weeks here. We have been trying to find the place that would be our next home. Hoping and praying for it to come soon, as we are anxious to move forward with the home study of our adoption. I have also been having some health issues, coming to find out that my gallbladder is not working and needs to be removed. Michael is beginning his last semester of school, and so needless to say that it has been very, very busy…..

But a common theme has been coming up for me. In the mornings I have been spending some time outside in the wee hours of the morning walking our complex listening to worship music and a common song keeps replaying on my IPOD from Steven Curtis Chapman. He wrote this sweet song after the death of his daughter. It is about his waiting to be reunited with her in heaven, but until then he just has to wait. And that is exactly how I feel. Michael and I have been watching kids out in the world, playing, in stores, we have been watching some Disney movies and all the while saying “I can’t wait until”…….We really can’t wait for her to come home. We can’t wait for all of the firsts that we will have and the memories that will be made. For now, I leave you with a snippet from the song… I think it summarizes where I am at.



But I, oh I, just have to wait
Cuz I know that day is coming
So I, oh I, just have to wait...........................................
