40 Weeks Plus!

Well as you guys may have read on my lovely wife's blog we have had a crazy week on full of emotions, frustration and non-stop driving! We have driven around Clarksville more this week then we ever had since we moved here over 5 years ago. In the middle of all this craziness I've stopped and realized that it's not all in vein and that there's a purpose to what we're doing we are bringing Kellsey home!! We are adding another member to the Garcia family and that's SO exciting!! I mean it has been like a pregnancy only without the morning sickness just the sickness of not knowing where my immigration paperwork is, the nausea of paperwork getting kicked back because of a simple typo. The running around to city, county, and government offices instead of doctors offices. I'm truly excited and once we submit our paperwork to Kellsey's country we will both feel like I've felt all four times before the kids were delivered excited, nervous, and eager to hold that new child in my arms and know that I love them as soon as I see them. In many ways this adoption process has been like a pregnancy and I know I have learned that God's timing is perfect even though I may not agree sometimes. I can't wait for Renee and I to travel and get Kellsey. We are excited beyond words!

I have several friends who've adopted out of the country and it's gone about the way yours has. My friends are on the other side now and have their kids in their arms! So just hang in there! You'll be on the other side soon and oh what a day that will be!
Continuing to pray!
2 Peter 3:13-14 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

I'm soooo excited that progress is finally being made (and seen).
I think the blogosphere is almost as excited as you and Renee are!

Praying right now!
Psalms 62:1-2 Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation. He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.

It's going to be so amazing when there are pics of you and Kellsey on here!
Lifting up prayers right now!
Psalms 62:5-7 My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him. He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved. In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
