A lot has happened since I last posted.
To much to even discuss except to say our adoption path has taken a huge detour!!
We had found ourselves getting discouraged from other friends we have meet on this adoption road that have been waiting years for a placement. I had a real struggle about do we stay with Bulgaria or do we start looking at other countries? It took us almost a year just to get registered with Bulgaria I just didn't know what to do!
Well after a lot of prayer and a decision to be proactive I started emailing other agencies to just learn about the programs in other countries. One of the things I did was to register with Rainbow Kids. Rainbow Kids is a website agencies can register to tell you about the children they have waiting. Some have major special needs some have a special need just because they are male and not a baby.
Last week I received an email that simple stated 17 month old, male child, healthy, Eastern Europe region, no picture. I just emailed out of curiosity thinking he might be in Bulgaria. Well I quickly got an email back and a very long phone call from an agency I have quickly grown to love. We where able to see his picture and we fell in love.
A week later we are looking at plane tickets to go meet our child. There is no other way to explain the events that have happened this week except to say God has led us to Moscow, Russia where my baby boy is waiting.
At this time we have plans to make our first trip at the end of Jan. or first week of Feb. and will eventually bring him home in March. We need lots of prayers because his adoption is more expensive than we had planned but we just know God didn't take us this far to leave us now.
