Quick Update

Wow! It is truly amazing to watch God work on our family! When we started this journey we had planned on going the traditional route with a baby between 0 and 12 months. Little did we know that God already had our child here on earth. On Sept 30th I received the most recent child waiting email from America World. Typically I do not open since a majority of those children that Kenneth and I are not ready to take on. But for some reason I opened the link and there he was! He was not the baby we had envisioned but he was to be ours! So what does this mean you ask?? Time to hurry up the paperwork to Africa. We closed on our new house on Oct 9th and that is when we told my parents about Little Buddy! On Oct 12th our fabulous social worker came to the house to finish the home study and we hope that by the end of the week the referral will be in our hands!! Keep us in our prayers and we will let you know asap what we hear!
