Waiting on Lydia

Well, I guess I have finally entered the world of "Blogging"!
Many of you know by now that we are adopting a little girl from South Korea!  We are sooooo excited, especially with the "outpouring" of love from our family and friends who have already helped us to raise over HALF of the money required to bring her home.

Therefore, we decided the best way to keep everyone informed of our process was of course the "Internet"!  So, our blog was born.  I hope you will enjoy "my ramblings" and pray for us as we move forward in the adoption process.

Of course you have probably figured out by the title of our blog that our little girl's name will be Lydia!  This was a fun family affair in choosing a name, but Mama won :).  As of today, our paperwork is sitting in Korea, waiting to be matched with a baby girl.  We rest in knowing that God knows exactly where she is and has a plan to bring her home.  We humbly ask you to pray for her safety, provision, and that she will get to come home to us very soon!  We have been told that a referral could take up to 4-6 months or sooner.

We still have to raise 11,000.00 to bring Lydia home.  We have seen God's hand working mightily in this situation and we trust that He will provide everything we need to fulfill His purposes. 

We have enclosed a picture of us from Disney World this year (while we were helping out at the Pastor's Conference)  that was sent in our package to Korea.  The boys are so excited about Lydia they are telling their friends that they will get a referral this month!!  Oh, if only it worked as they predict!
You can also see the "beginnings" of her room.  We have had so much fun painting and decorating in PINK!

Blessings to all,
Angie
