Wednesday is under 100 hours away and Wednesday is a BIG day for our family. Wednesday is one of the first dates we have held onto in this ALMOST 22 month paper pregnancy.... Wednesday is the day that our girls asked the social worker in August, "if it could happen fast!" Wednesday is the day in October where very powerful people meet in Peru meet one time and match child/ren with the family they believe is the best match for the child/ren's emotional, physical, mental and spiritual well being. We have presented ourselves to these esteemed people and shared our hearts in a letter of how we already care for these girls and why we believe we are the forever family for them.
Of course, our faith in God comforts us in that we believe that He already knows the outcome. He has known all along, even at the time these girls were conceived by their .... He knows their days.
For anyone that knows and loves me, I am fairly well adept at taking charge and making things happen and when things are beyond my control I double and triple check to make sure there is not just one more detail I can "assist" with to influence (or have even a false sense of control of) the outcome. The journey to our girls has taught me so much, that really there are very few things in this life that I can and do control. This has brought me great peace as I have been learning to do all I can like it is up to me and then pray like it is ALL up to God. I have peace, peace beyond anything I would have ever IMAGINED knowing that we have done our part and that it is not up to me from here.
I look forward to introducing our girls !!!
