Yes sir! Today marks 6 months of us waiting to be matched with our daughter. It's so funny that we are here in THIS seat because I remember when we were still waiting to get our paperwork, I was in such AWE at those who were at this milestone. So....we wait!
Each month, we try to celebrate by serving others. I don't have any specific pictures of what I've been doing to serve someone specific. One really cool thing since our church's 'God is for the Poor' series is that I've been working with a homeless gentleman to prayerfully get him on his feet. I learn a lot from him but it is his faith in God that always humbles me. My kids know him by name and if they see him while we're out, they'll say, 'Hey there's Mr. Such and Such'. They see me talking to him in the parking lot, giving him money, groceries, or whatever. I just pray that they'll do the same and so much more in learning to serve others.
So family............here's to 6 Months! We're getting closer!
