Waiting is hard to do

Waiting no matter how old you are is hard to do. Over the last five years as we proceeded with our adventure of having a family I've had to learn to be patient. My husband would say I am not a very patient person but consdering all that's happened in the last 5 years I would say I am LEARNING to be patient. As many of you know Nick and I went to talk with New Beginnings Adoption Agency in Tupelo, MS. I went prepared with my pen and paper and my list of type questions ( yes I have a little OCD in me ). We met with a very nice person who answered all of our questions and then some. I am in awe of those who have gone through or are going through the process of adoption. In what I have learned over the past several weeks during my research of adoption agencies it can be a long, emotional process. I've said it before and I've heard many people say "if there are so many babies in the world that need adopting...why does it cost so much or take so long?" Well I wish I had an answer but my parents always taught me good things come to those who wait....so here we are waiting...even though it's hard to do. We are still prayerfuly considering which adoption agency will best suite us and also hoping that maybe a birth mother would find us and we have a private adoption; but either way we are prepared to wait for our blessed little one. So right now I will do the only thing I can do...Pray. 1 Samuel 1:27 says For this child I have prayed, and the Lord has granted the desires of my heart. So even though I have never met you ,little one, I pray for you daily, and know that God will join us together in His time .... Love your momma xoxo
