Road to Rowan

Today is Easter, and as I listen to the song, “It is Well With My Soul” the lyrics “this mountain that is in front of me, will be thrown into the midst of the sea.” 🎉🎉🎉 causes my souls to rejoice!! Rowan, In this season of waiting, it is easy to feel like we are camping out in “Saturday.” Even when we do not see it yet, God always comes through on His promises.  His Sundays.  This Sunday, we celebrate His greatest promise. He is risen! You are our daughter, and you have been prayed for.  You are so very loved by God, and by us!  We rejoice over you, and we look forward with hope, in sharing this day with you in the future!

  We have been in a holding pattern, waiting to hear back about our first review of our home study, and in this time, we received an email about a handful of children who are in need of homes.  We felt such a strong connection to one of the children, and we are so hopeful that they are our child!  This child is not listed publicly, so we are waiting to give any more details until we are, hopefully, matched with them! (Even then, we won’t be able to post pictures or give any identifying information!) All we know at this point, is that we are one of three families reviewing this child’s file.  We have gone through a medical review with our International Adoption Doctor, we have filled out a TEN page questionnaire on how we plan to help and care for this child now and forever, and we have been hopeful in prayer.   We would, more than anything, love to bring this child into our family, if we are the best fit.  We love this little person so very much alread...
