Do you ever find yourself in a situation where someone asks you to do some crazy thing, and you find that you are willing to do it? Then the situation is removed and think, "Hey, I really wanted that opportunity." We had one of those moments this week. It was a good eye opener, but it has me wondering what God is trying to prepare me for. I never know what is around the corner.
We still have no court news. I am not surprised, but I do begin to wonder should I be doing the rest of my paperwork, or should I just wait for an official date? I tend to expect the worst and then get caught when things go better than I had planned. Last year I didn't plan for travel until we actually passed court. I figured we wouldn't be traveling for at least three weeks after we passed court so why rush? I ended up with an embassy date 19 days after we found out that we had passed court. I had let my babysitter go on a three week vacation and was in a panic. It all turned out just fine, but maybe I shouldn't wait quite so long this time.
As a side note, if any of you are wondering why I haven't posted a completed picture of my front stairs, well, they still aren't complete. I do have stairs, but no railing. I have arranged for a friend to take care of this little detail this week. If it happens I will post a picture.
Life in a small town with a large family. Trying to put God on display.

Hi Signe, thanks for stopping by our blog. Heather and Phil told us about you and I'm excited to meet you through blogland. I will have to read more of your blog to find out about the little person you are in the process of bringing home. Will also add you to our list so we can follow with you. May your court date come quickly!-Rebecca
Yea its a strange thing when you find yourself in those moments. I had a few of those since my adoption journey started in 2006. The good thing is that God knew what was right and we never know, the opportunity might still arise. You know what I mean, girl?
Anyways, I can't believe you are so far into your new adoption journey already.
