As we continue to wait for our final approval the Lord continues to prepare us and bless us in this waiting time. Last week we had the blessing of going out to dinner with a family that a friend put us in touch with. This family also adopted a sweet little girl from India, it took them 5 years (as ours has), they are missionaries and their little girl is deaf. We met at a Chick-Fil-A so the kids could play and I was holding back tears of joy so often throughout the night. To spend time with a family who had walked a similar journey as us and to watch my kids do sign language with their daughter melted my heart. Our kiddos were so wonderful. They spent hours with their little girl playing on the playground and signing with her! Practicing all they have learned and asking her to teach them other signs. It is amazing how quickly they have picked up sign language. Our 40+ year old brains are slowly learning and working hard but the kids just absorb it all and are doing so wonderful! It melted my heart to see my kids so excited to play with a child who was deaf and it was a true blessing to be with this family.
Please continue to pray that we would receive our final approval soon! We were told we would two weeks ago but continue to wait. We are so thankful for all the Lord is doing in our lives as we wait and the special blessings He sends our way.
Us trying to go out to Indian Food to celebrate!
