Adoption Update and Prayer Request

January 22, 2018 Lana

We have been busy here the last 8 months.  This precious little girl has rocked our world.

Born at just 2 lbs 4 oz months and at 29 weeks she was tiny!

Now she is a big 8-month-old who has a smile that just melts our hearts.

I wanted to share just a bit of what is going on for those prayer warriors who are praying for us.

We have kept a few things silent about our adoption journey, one day I hope to share ALL the answered prayers but until that day –  please keep praying for this wild adventure that the Lord has us on.

First of all, we have an open adoption.  We want to stay in contact and have a relationship with the birth parents.  We feel that is the Lord’s will for this situation.  We are so proud of the birth parents for choosing life and they will ALWAYS have a special place in our hearts and in our home.

Another question we are asked since the baby was born so prematurely is she doing okay, health-wise? Thankfully YES!!!  We (4 out of 6 kids) even had the flu a couple of weeks ago and this sweet girl never even had a runny nose.  I really believe the Lord has His angels camped beside her day in and out.

Is there anything we can do to help right now is another question.  YES!  We covet prayers.  Some things that are just aggravating have come up and we know the Lord is working out the little details to His glory!

Again, we can’t share everything right now, but the Lord has been so so good.  He is faithful and so kind.

I love that His love never fails.

Blessings to you!  You are loved!
