Showers of Blessing!

Saturday my family and friends gathered to bless Little D and me!

It was such a special day! With all that is going on in Uganda, it was a breath of fresh air and a sweet time of encouragement.


There is nothing like being in a room full of women who believe God can part the Red Sea.







My sisters, mom, and a couple of friends made up the most scrumptious appetizers and desserts. Everyone was raving on the food...and on a rainy day, yummy foods to fill your belly are just the
thing!


Everything was beautiful! There is a picture of their little trees with hanging hearts (to match the design on my adoption shirts...how darling is that???) that were on the hearth, food tables, and as centerpieces.




The generosity of everyone was incredibly humbling.
Little D is one loved girl, let me tell you!


Before I opened gifts I updated everyone on the situation in Uganda and asked for prayer. I reminded them all of the One we serve...the King of Kings is not bound by any earthly government. He has given me confidence that He is about to do something spectacular.
So when my attorney contacted me this morning and asked if I want her to move forward with "fixing" the court date, I told her yes. The fierce wind is blowing, but I will move forward in faith that God is parting the Red Sea. I hope you are all watching...

  2. Hi Sweetie~
    I am out of the loop about what is happening. We went to Disneyland for Cody's birthday and missed church. I thought about you while I was there, thinking what your daughter would think of Mickey Mouse and the parade.....imagining her face and the excitement. It is such a gift to share in the anticipation of your adoption! We ran into friends we had'nt seen in years that had there adopted child with them. What joy! Praying for you & hugs.
