Preparing for Judson's arrival has been fun. I painted his room this brilliant blue color and put up a Haitian Tap-Tap on the wall. It looks exactly as I hoped it would. Then today I purchased a car seat at a garage sale. I found a really nice one that I couldn't pass up. The lady who sold it to me has two adoptive children of her own, and I thought that was pretty cool.
I haven't put up a crib yet or done too much shopping for baby stuff because I want to make sure that Judson's actually going to get the medical visa before I do too much. It looks good from what I've been told. And I'm praying for June 15, 2010, but the timing is all in God's hands, and I have peace about that.
These verses from James 1 have been my comfort and strength this week: "...count it all joy to you when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing." James 1:2-4
Our Father knows exactly the words of encouragement we need in times of trials. My friends, turn to Him when life gets difficult or worrisome and let Him lead you.
Love Always,
Laurie
