EDITED: Link to a Giveaway and a Couple Prayer Requests

I love reading Amber's blog at Striving for 31 She is having a book give away. Click the link above and register yourself! Good luck!

By the Way....still no answer from the CCAA we should hear something today or tomorrow...in a perfect world. Also say a prayer for my bloggy friend Alycia who is waiting on her TA and for a travel buddy "L" who is waiting on the final steps for her family to bring home two sweet little boys. I know they are both ready to have their children in their arms.

EDITED TO ADD: Sorry I thought I had already posted about what we were waiting on from the CCAA but now I remember that I wrote a partial post and my internet went down...so basically we are waiting to find out if our eligibility check was approved. We have a couple of issues that fall just outside of some guidelines and we are trying to get the CCAA to overlook those issues and let us apply to adopt our sweet little Brooklyn (this is what we will name her and what I will call her on this blog, I know many of you know her by a different name but I do not want to post that information out here for the whole world to see). If the answer is a "No" or "Wait" then we MAY go ahead and begin to pursue an adoption of an Ethiopian boy whom we plan on naming Silas. Notice I said MAY. We are beginning homeschool in a couple of months and if this CCAA request is denied we also might just wait for awhile so we can save money and get into the swing of things with homeschool.

We both have a heart for adoption and we do plan on adding to our family at least once. I would love to have Brooklyn and Silas and I am praying that if that is God's will it will happen in His perfect timing. Just wanted to clarify!

In Christ Alone,

  3. Whew!! I thought I had missed a "huge" announcement! I started reading older posts and then rereading... thinking I must have missed it.

    Hope that CCAA comes back with good answers!! But we know that ALL things work for the good of them that love the Lord and are called according to His purpose. So if His plan is to wait (and trust me I know about waiting!!) then it will be in His perfect time. Keep us posted!

    Many Blessings!!
