JUMP.

 we're all an excited mess over here!
we have plenty of time to get ready, as it is not until after the courts' summer break,
but we are trusting that God's timing is perfect here.  in the meantime, we will be
preparing and praying.  praying for the boys' hearts to be encouraged & being prepared.
praying for our judge to see our bond & the love we have for our boys and their country.
praying that this appointed time will happen & the procedures that happen in the following
days will be smooth.  praying for our boys' friends at the orphanage--that their hearts
would stay encouraged and hopeful as they wait for families.  for all the orphans
in the world--that they may know love.  to wait gracefully in these final weeks before i can
be with our boys again.  praying for God to be glorified in this process.
thank you so much for your love, support & prayers!
hold on, boys, we're coming!

    It's almost like my heart could burst with joy for you!
    I'm so happy AND
    will we be in Uganda at the same time?
    We fly August 20th (or around there).
    It would be FANTASTIC to be able to meet up.
    Also, I fly to Chicago on the 12th. You live in the Chicago area, non?
