The power of prayer

If the past week has  taught me anything it's to truly trust in the power of prayer. The Lord has answered so many prayers for us....even ones we didn't know to pray.

Perfect timing when receiving the call that Timothy was on his way. From Andy's parents visiting to the fact that it was early enough that we can most likely be at the big wedding!!

A consistent schedule and wonderful love and care for Josiah while we are gone.

Protection of Josiah's heart being away from mommy and daddy.

Safety as we traveled 8 1/2 hours to the hospital and again for the 3 1/2 hours to the county where court occurs.

A safe and healthy delivery.

A smooth hospital experience.

A perfectly formed baby boy!

Time to pray with our birth parents.

Encouragement from hospital staff.

A clean bill of health at Timothy's follow up Dr. visit.

Financial gifts that gave helped tremendously.

My parents were able to visit for a day.

They made it home safely before the storm hits the Midwest.

....to name a few. So many of you have been faithful to pray with us through the ins and outs of this process so far. THANK YOU!!! Really. You all are awesome!

I ask now for continued prayers for the following...

A court date by Wednesday of this week.

That we would be able to head back to MO next weekend.

That the pending weather would not interfere with our case being seen by the judge.

Continued protection of Josiah and for this momma's heart being away from him for this long.

Again, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! Your support, be it verbal or prayer is felt and so appreciated. I am humbled continually that a God chose us for this experience. To be this sweet boy's family. It's truly amazing. I cannot wait to show him to you all!
