My heart waits...

I get the question all the time..."how's the adoption going?"  I love that question!!! I have nothing new to say but I love to share.  Right now all I can say is We wait....still waiting for fingerprint clearance.  Days and weeks seem like forever right now.  The boys ask, is the baby coming soon, is the baby a boy or a girl, can they sleep in my room.  I want to have answers to their questions, I want a picture, or a story but we wait.  That is the story of our life right now.  All in God's time.

We have days that are crazy, and schedules that are crazier.  And I just can't wait to add one more!!! My heart waits to meet our baby, to hold them, comfort them, and share them.  My heart waits to give love to them that is meant for no one else but them.  My heart waits to see their two big brothers hold them, and love them (which will include annoying them:)  My heart waits to see their grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friend give them the love they deserve.  My hearts waits for the hearing of their first word, the first boo-boo, and the first hug.  My heart waits to see my husband become a dad again in a totally different way. 

My heart will help my head when things get tough, when money is tight and emotions are high.  My heart will help lead me through the tough times that might be ahead.  As my heart waits it grows stronger in Christ and more dependant on His strength. 

My heart waits for this child that God will so graciously bless us with.  His timing is perfect of this I am sure.  Until that day...my heart waits.
