Touch Down!

Our referral has arrived in Rwanda. It was been very fun to follow our package as it floated around the world over the weekend. First Virginia then off to New Jersey before flying to Paris and then ending up in Great Britain. An hour ago I followed my tracking number again to find out that it has landed and been delivered to the recipient in Rwanda.

This is very exciting, but the last great news I'm going to have about our kids and our paperwork for quite some time. The hard part begins, now we wait and not for a week or two, but 7-9 months worth of waiting. I am trying to be diligent with our kids at home, but it's hard when you know you have life changing events around the corner. Please pray for our children in Africa that they would be safe and that we would be patient and good stewards of our time.

Love, Jessica

Rwanda or Bust!

YEA!!! The dossier is on its way. Our family coordinator emailed me today to inform us that our paper work is on a plane headed to Rwanda. I was so surprised because my time-line wasn't expecting to start to worry about it until next Monday. As always God's timing is always perfect.

All those months of collecting and coping and emailing have paid off. Yea!

Now.... we wait. And maybe in 7-9 months we will receive a picture of our children. I am excited to go get our children, but I pray that God's will will be done through out this whole process.

It's so exciting to think God already knows who is coming.

Love, Jessica
