"I realized that the deepest spiritual lessons are not learned by His letting us have our way in the end, but by His making us wait, bearing with us in love and patience until we are able to honestly to pray what He taught His disciples to pray: Thy will be done." — Elisabeth Elliot (Passion and Purity: Learning to Bring Your Love Life Under Christ's Control)

I found your blog last week and a so glad I did. I needed to read this today. Going through infertility and this is the place I am trying to get to. You have a beautiful family. War Eagle!
We got the phone call!!! Yesterday we heard from APAC and we are approved...in August. We have been approved at each step along the way since we haven't been married 3 years. State DHR utimatly decided they want us to be married 3 years before adopting. Our anniversary is August 8th! Six months and we can start being considered as an adoptive resource in Alabama!!!
War Eagle Vanessa! Waiting is THE hardest but such a spiritually important catalyst for growth. I'm praying for you. God sees every tear and loves you.
MELANIE!!! I'm so excited for y'all!! Please keep your blog updated in August!
