Baptism

I haven't updated in quite a while...It has been a bit crazy!  So Taylor has been with us for about a month and a half and it has been quite exciting.  I am not saying that we haven't had our challenges but it has been interesting!  I truly believe with all of my heart that God has his hand in this entire journey!  Taylor seems to have fit right in with our crazy life.  She is attending a small private christian school in our town, is making friends, attends youth group with us, she went on a weekend retreat with our youth group, rededicated her life to Christ and a few weeks later was water baptized.  Taylor and our daughter have gotten very close and call eachother best friends, however, they both would love to have their own room....Unfortunately, we can't accomodate that one...but they are getting along fantastically. 

I am so thankful for God's provision and his faithfulness through out this entire process.  Now that Taylor is here and secure with us, we can now dedicate more time to Bekru and the adoption process.  Our information has been sent to the agency, once it is notarized it will be forwarded to the Ethiopian Embassy for approval.  Now it will be more paperwork and waiting....

Psalm 46:10
"Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth."

We will be still, trust in God, He will get the glory!
