Update On Baby A

Hey! I just wanted to let everyone know about how important tomorrow is for us! The social workers that are involved with Baby A's case are presenting us to The Adoption Committee tomorrow! We found out that our social worker is on the committee; which is very good news! They are all pulling for us but we all know how DSS is...you never really know for sure until it's for sure. They are aiming for a couple different things tomorrow. Basically, to solidify us as being the adoptive parents and potentially moving the hearing to change the plan to adoption closer, right now the hearing is set for January. I am asking everyone to just please pray for the committee that they will see what is best for A. Please pray for us as a family that are nerves will be calm tomorrow and that we will understand that God is in control! Thanks for reading and thanks for praying with us! 

I'm outnumbered!

Yep! Outnumbered! 1 girl....4 boys in my house!~ Ryan, Skylar, Mason, and my precious baby boy! Last Friday, I got a text from my social worker asking if we would be interested in taking two boys ages 8 and 5 and discretely declined because of the ages. In that same conversation she asked me about Skylar (3) and Mason (18 months) I said Yes! They are in our age range and who was I to say no. lol Friday came and went; they said they didn't need placement right now and that it could be Monday. Monday around 12:30pm got a call that they did need placement and at 3:30pm Skylar and Mason were at our house....and they made their GRAND entrance. It was like a tornado came in a just destroyed everything in 5 seconds. Up the stairs, down the stairs, everywhere! Without going into much detail publicly, these two little boys have seen WAY too much in their short lives. They have no boundaries and no guidelines. If anybody knows me, I like boundaries...and guidelines. Anyways, to answer the ongoing question about how long they will be with us...it's hard to say; at least until October 14th. I also, wanted to give everyone an update on Baby A and his adoption progress. Sometime this month they are going to be meeting with the adoption committee and present us to them. Sounds good right!? Well, there could be another "option" for him...which is still adoption just not with us. The odds are in our favor; but we all know DSS and how they work...you never know if what they are saying is actually what is going to happen. Right now, we need prayer! LOTS AND LOTS of prayer! Pray for the adoption committee, the social workers, Baby A, Us, Mom and Dad, Desiree' as we face this uncertainty! I know my God is bigger than this and His great plan is what we most desire! Thank you all for your support and prayers!
