Alright everyone, we've been waiting 4 months (well, in 4 more days it will be 4 months). In some ways it seems like 4 is a lot. Four is so much better than 1 or 2 or 3. But 4 is not as good as say... 8 or 10 or 12.... Although at this point it seems like it's going to be more than the 14 that was originally the max end of our agencies wait time estimates. Which is ok. I'm telling myself that this is just like all the other things in my life that I've waited on God for that have been an awesome story of His work in the world when all is said and done. I do believe it will be.
In other news, I've made some progress towards our goals in these last two months since I posted. I really need to make a goal to post more, but this has been a BUSY time for us. Here's a photo explanation of what we've been up to:
 |
| We had an awesome set of food drives for the ministry and are now almost fully stocked! |
 |
| Z got to make a gingerbread house at a Chick-fil-a craft night. Talk about a frustrating craft for mama's. The thing wouldn't stay together! |
 |
| We made paper star lanterns for grandma's and Aunt Sarah for Christmas! |
 |
| And Christmas cookies! |
 |
| L opening the start of his college preparation stuff. Who doesn't want a laundry basket and dishes for Christmas?! |
 |
| Z loved his presents and having Grandma Beth and Papa Brian in town! |
 |
| Made home made flour tortillas as part of my effort to cook at home more. We've only eaten out once a week for two weeks AND I've gone to bed each night with a clean kitchen. It really is a Christmas miracle. |
 |
| And finally, Z is turning into a tool man. |
Overall, we've had an awesome holiday season and I'm a bit sorry its over. But the good news is we're on the right track! We're enjoying our life as a family and working towards making ministry better and better.
