"Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not;
remember that what you have now
was once among the things you hoped for."
This was when we made the decision to bring a baby into our home not the traditional way but perhaps a more blessed way. We knew we could provide love and stability to any baby regardless of where she came from, in our case we chose Guatemala. So we climbed the moutain of paperwork, received all our approvals and submitted everything required only to be put on hold by the mess in Guat. We started this journey 10 long months ago.
AND THEN...we got pregnant. I am 24 weeks pregnant now with a wonderful, "unpredictable" baby girl! We are very excited! This is an amazing surprise given to us. Our desire and hope to bring a child into our home has gone from wishing and waiting to COMING IN NOVEMBER!!
Though was are still waiting very impatiently on Mari we have to trust that God has a plan for our family. He does not give us more than we can handle.
So for now, we wait for our special baby girl Mari to come home, and enjoy our surprise, Gianna!!
