Hello all!
We are using a new website for the convenience for when we are in Kaz. Most families are using this site, so I wanted to make it easier on myself in a third world country!!! :)
Well, there is good news! We have officially switched cities in Kaz. What this means is that the last city, Astana, had no young children available. Our agency was just told this on Thursday. So, together with our agency, they are moving our file to Kara-Kastek, which is in South Kaz. There are more young girls available there.
"Lean not on your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge Him and HE WILL DIRECT YOUR PATHS!" This is yet another way HE is directing our paths towards OUR daughter!!!! Our daughter is not in Astana- she is somewhere else- maybe in Karakastek...... We will see.
The timing- to switch cities our paperwork will need to go through two steps and each step takes up to 10 business days for a total of 20-30 business days. These two steps include getting the LOI. Soooo, that could put us in Kaz by the beginning of November! Woo Hoo!
Please be in prayer with us. It will be difficult to leave the boys for 4 weeks AND difficult to leave our daughter for 4 weeks after meeting and spending time with her. I am really comforted by our Great Comforter already in this matter, but we can always use more prayers! :)
I can't even begin to express how excited I am to meet, hug, kiss our daughter. I am starting to get butterflies in my stomach and I had a dream that she was a giggly, smiley baby!
Its getting ever so close........
About Me
- greta
- We are a family of four, ready to be a family of FIVE! God called us to this great adventure in the beginning of 2006. Throughout the past three years, God has been glorified throughout this entire adoption process! He gets all the credit in everything from providing the expenses to this costly adoption... all the way to leading us to the specific girl, SELAH, He has waiting for us in a country that HE specifically appointed us to go to. His ways are better than our ways! I have never experienced God more than through this process!!! I have learned that if I leave my comfort zone to do what He has asked, then all that will come is "abundant life". And sometimes the "abundant life" comes with major struggles. We would have not planned for it to go the way it has, but there have been treasures along the way, that we wouldn't have wanted to miss! We have many blessings that have come from this adventure and we aren't even done yet!!!! We hope that you will follow us in this journey towards bringing our daughter, Selah, home from Kazakhstan.
