adoption [someday]


God has placed this so heavily on my heart that it is almost painful. I know in my heart that God is telling Josh and I to adopt a little girl from Russia. I do not know why Russia but this is so heavy on my heart that I am not about to question Him. Everyone says oohhhh that’s going to expensive or oohh Russia… that’s not good .(seriously!? who’s to say that’s not good? I think it’s funny how people will question anything out of the norm ) Josh and I are not 100% sure when we will be able to do this BUT trust me it is going to happen! Josh says, in the next couple of years we can start the process if everything goes well but honestly it’s so obviously that this is not in our hands so I am not worried about it at all. I have peace that this is all going to work out and work out in Gods timing.



Josh and I will have to travel to Russia two times. The first trip at the most is 10days long and you get to go to the orphanage and possible meet your child and go through process of documents and signatures and acceptance. The second trip is about 4 weeks long and has a possible court hearing, final documents, and paper work goes through. Just the thought that Josh and I might have the possibility to go through this and have the chance to adopt our little girl… I don’t have words. I don’t even know my little girl yet.. I don’t even know if she exists yet or is even thought of yet (I think about her everyday) but there is already a place in my heart for her, just that fact alone is what is going to keep me going. I love her and I haven’t even met her yet and I probably won’t for a couple of years BUT by the GRACE of God Josh and I will come home with our little girl someday.
