Eli,
Mommy has had to ask the Lord to increase my faith this week. I really thought we would get THE CALL this week. I miss you so bad and yet I haven't held you. We have watched your video's over and over. Your Umma is so sweet and takes really good care of you. Your birthday is July 16, 2011 and I have petitioned our Lord daily that He would grant me favor and let me celebrate the day of your birth with you. I believe He will grant this request. He has been taking me to specific scripture's in His word about being persistent and showing me how much He loves us and wants to answer our prayers. He knows best and I believe His timing is perfect. Mommy and Nana have had a really bad cold this week so He may just be protecting you from getting sick. I don't know His will or plan, but I do trust Him. I love you sweet boy! I'll be kissing you soon!!!

I was telling a friend that I haven't spoken to in a while about the adoption process and everything that has been happening in the last couple of months. While speaking to her I realized even more than before how this process mirrors the love of our heavenly Father. We were afar off away from God and He chose to save us not because we had done anything, not because we deserve it because we certainly don't. I thought of Eli, he didn't have to do anything to deserve our love, but we love him w...

Eli,
Since I have received your pictures on April 18, 2011 I can't get you out of my mind. Mommy keeps praying that the Korean government and immigration will move quickly so I can come and get you. I pray to Jesus everyday that He will grant us favor and allow us to hold you by the end of July. You will be turning 10 months old in 6 days and I'm going to miss it. I know your foster mommy will give you lots of hugs and kisses though. I love you little boy with the sweet eyes!!!
Love you foreve...

Doxology
If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 4:11
The Greek word Doxology is a brief formula for expressing praise or glory to God. The New Testament uses the Greek word Doxa to express glory and limits the meaning to God’s glory. As I share our story of adoption...

I had a very vivid dream of my little Eli last night. I dreamed he came to me on a boat. I don't know what the significance of that is, but we name him Eli Noah. Anyway, I'm so excited that the process is moving on. Sam's third birthday is this Sunday and I have tried to escape the reality that my children are growing up. My prayer for today is that Sam and Lily will love and cherish every moment with each other and with their new little brother. I pray that my children walk humbly before the...

WOW!!!! That is the only word for today that I can come up with to describe how I feel. Eli was on my mind all day yesterday. I was wondering what in the world will he be like and how will he fit in our family. I tried to imagine his soft skin, black hair, and beautiful brown eyes. How will he smell, how will it feel to hold him for the first time? I prayed and ask God for a little gold nugget, just a reminder that this is really happening. Because when you are in the waiting process you feel...

Good morning baby Eli. I don't know where you are in your stage of development, but I love you. Your daddy and I were just discussing what your temperament will be. Will you be like your sister laid back and easy going or strong willed and out going like your brother. Sam prays for you every day he says, "Thank you Jesus for baby Eli." Every time we see a baby he ask about you. What will it be like to have you here? I can't wait to see. I love you! Mommy

We have our tee shirt store set up on-line...yeah! You can go to
www.adoptionbug.com/babyeli to purchase a really cute tee shirt that supports adoption and also helps us bring our baby home. Every penny counts. The Lord answered my prayers today. I felt discouraged and ask for some friends to pray and within an hour this store was set up and we have another fundraiser in the works. God is good!
