We are still working to raise funds. We have learned the country we are headed to is in the works of transitioning the "powers that be" over there for the adoption processes. We have also learned the quick in and out that once was is slowing fading. We have learned our facilitators no longer get to hand select our judges in hopes of getting families through the system faster and seen in front of a gracious and "adoption friendly" judge.
The mountains and waves are blinding at times. BLINDING. Shawn and I have been called out to walk alongside the mountain and wait. Wait for Him to move. In my human nature this wait seems so unnecessary. I am sure He has a much bigger plan--He always does.
I know this, growing (in faith) pains are ROUGH. ROUGH y'all!! We will trod along, hand in hand, heart in heart, seen to unseen. It will happen--not when I am ready, I am sure. But it will happen, in His perfect timing.
In the mean time, pray for us, pray for safety over Alexander, pray for financial provisions. Please, just pray how you are lead to do so.

Christie...the fear of so many unknowns must be so difficult to accept. My constant prayer is that Alexander is safe and that someone shows him kindness. I pray all the time that God would let him feel your love through others until you can get to him.
Sending lots of love!
The waiting is horrific, isn't it? We thought we'd have Caroline home by now, but we're still months from even traveling. I'll be praying for y'all.
