Reaghan's Dream

This morning I asked Reaghan if she had sweet dreams last night.

She said yes.

I asked her what she dreamed about.

She said 'American Idol!' (We watch it together on Tuesdays)

I asked her who won American Idol...

She said "Daddy!"

So if you are placing bets on who will win the competition this year, consider Reaghan's prophecy :)

Rwanda Update

For those of you who are interested in our adoption process, here's the scoop:

We have selected our organization, America World Adoption Association.
We have selected our country: Rwanda
We have selected the gender: Boy
and the age: Less than 6 months old

We want so badly to jump into the "official" process, but need to wait until I get a job so we can afford it!

I am not going to get a job for the summer since we have so many youth group events/trips and family vacations planned.

SO, if all goes according to plan (and things rarely do!) we will submit our official application in September.

Since we decided to adopt in November, this year has been a good lesson on patience and waiting on the Lord. I want so badly to bring our baby home, but know that it is all in God's hands and in His timing.

In the meanwhile, we've met (via the internet) other families who have gone down this path, or are currently going through the process. Hearing their stories gives us something to look forward to!
