It's been an interesting few weeks for us. To start, I was so blessed by my time with Ean last week and with family. It was really the first time that I was able to spend quality one-on-one time with Ean since he was born. A real treat. Aside from my dad being back in the hospital, it was a great week.
Alas, admist all the uncertainty, God is still shaping in both Carlos and I the deep desire for adoption - specifically Africa. I read this amazing book last week from the founders of All God's Children International. It's been a long time since I've been so captivated by a reading especially with every single page pointing to the amazing works of our Lord.
I still can't "figure it out" in my wordly mind how all this is going to work out given our job situation, but I am excited to finally be able to let go and wait with excitement to see how creatively God is going to work in our family in the months to come. Carlos and I agree that this is how life is going to be lived for our family going forward - asking the Lord to guide our steps and simply waiting to see where He leads. It sounds so basic and foundational as I write it, but it has not been our reality as a family. For that reason, I'm excited.
Let's roll...
"In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps." Proverbs 16:3
