The last time I posted I talked about adoption/orphan care. So I guess it's kind of fitting for the reason I'm writing to be because of an adoption.
We have 6 kids at our house! And if you are reading this then you must be a very good friend of mine and already know that it's not because we adopted.
My sister is adopting 3 sweet little children from Ukraine. The story of God's amazing provision throughout this adoption is faith building to say the least. So it would do you some good to go on over to my sister's blog and read all about their journey to and through surrendering their will to His. Amazing! Redemption is the word that comes to mind when I think of my sister. Seeing her transform from the girl that I prayed countless times to be drawn out of some mucky sins into the incredible woman of God who lives out her faith in a way that I can only gawk at has been breathtaking. Only God can do miracles like that and I praise Him for loving us so much to bring us up out of the muck.
All that to say...I have 6 kids at my house because we are keeping 2 of her kids while she and her husband (and 1 year old) are doing crazy paper work and getting to know the three kids they are adopting.
Here is a visual of these sweet babies that you can be praying for.

It has been such a blessing to have Luke and Raylen at our house since Saturday. They have been doing things like lizard hunting, swinging, playing run after then hide from the lawn mower, scooters, tree climbing, tea parties and tons of other fun stuff. I think what they are most obsessed with now is lizards.
We are having so much fun and I wouldn't call it hard at all. But I guess it is only the end of the second full day! I guess we will see how it's going on day 23.
