Closer than we've ever been

Last night, I couldn't sleep.

Maybe it was that cup of coffee that we had at 7pm, maybe it was the sound of the rain pounding on the skylight that we have in our kitchen (which is one of my favorite sounds, by the way). As I lay there in the dark, my mind traveled to Ind*a. I can envision her sweet little face. I've pinched and zoomed and inspected every single pixel of each picture that we have of her. That's just what you do when your daughter lives 8,854 miles away. You live for seeing new photos and you pray.

Sweet P, there isn't a day that you aren't prayed for. Not just by us, but by people we may not even know.

A week from today we will be going to bed, but on the other side of the world one of the most important days of our two year adoption process will be beginning.

Court day. 


I felt like this day would never come, but the fact is, it's almost here! If the Lord puts us on your heart this week, please respond in prayer.

Pray that everyone necessary would be present. 

Pray for the judge, that he would hear her case and that he would give us verbal approval that same day. Pray that he would issue written orders in record time.

Pray for our girl and our family. Big, exciting changes are on the horizon for all of us. 

Pray for God to move mountains so we can book our plane tickets SOON! 

It's getting real. Today we are one day closer to meeting the girl we've loved since we saw her face on May 1, 2015.
