I am astonished that almost two weeks have passed since I've been home. Safe to say that this is why God gave me peace with the decision to leave, it was definitely the way to go :)

| Update Picture Week #51 since receiving Little Miss's referral - oh this girl! |
Although the trip ended up being for a different purpose than what I had hoped, it has become apparent in the last week that the trip WAS indeed purposeful (for multiple faith growing reasons
beyond adoption), but adoption related - it appears that we could have been delayed weeks longer had it not been taken. I will have to add to this
post at some point to include all the things God has done through the wait in the last few months. I do not enjoy the delay(s), but I do enjoy seeing what God does through it and living firsthand Romans 8:28 "And we know that in ALL THINGS God works for the good of those who love him!" He.Wastes.Nothing.
So what are we waiting for now? For our case to be reviewed, which is happening
late this week. If it goes well, and no more documentation is needed, we will be assigned a court date.
PLEASE join us in praying to that end. That THIS would be the week we would see forward progress!
And now for your viewing pleasure.......photos from our journey! All of these photos can be connected with a blog post while in country - so for double bonus points (that will only be tallied internally by you) match the photos up to said posts :) The only picture that I
REALLY wish I would have gotten was the Adam Sandler tour guide, but alas, no cameras were allowed in the museum, so you'll just have to believe me!
Enjoy!
