ON THEIR WAY!!!!



We received this picture a few days ago...(Mercy, Melodie, Odesco,& Jenkins)

I just received word that our precious children are homeward bound!!! They are on the plane headed to Brussels and then to JFK where we will joyfully receive the newest members of our family tomorrow afternoon:) I can't even describe the flood of emotions going on right now...total relief that the wait is over...anticipation regarding our meeting and how they will do saying goodbye to Melodie (an AOH employee who has become very special to Mercy, Odesco and Jenkins and shown love to them over these past several months), concern over the transition etc, etc..
But, the most overwhelming theme in my heart is ,"HE WHO PROMISED IS FAITHFUL!!"
He has faithfully led us down this path of adoption, He has faithfully chosen Mercy and Odesco to be a part of our family, He has faithfully equipped us and carried us as we dealt with the many disappointments and challenges and now I can say with full confidence, He will faithfully give us everything we need to parent these precious ones and graft them into our family because, HE WHO PROMISED IS FAITHFUL!!!
Thanks so much for continuing to pray for us...the days ahead will be filled with joy and challenges, I'm sure...
I will try to update tomorrow.
Rejoicing in His goodness, wisdom and perfect timing!!
Mama B...whose nest is about to expand...WOO-HOO :)
