Another family has come forward for "N" and because of our home study troubles there is a good chance we will loose her. I thought she was "the one" we were looking for, but she is in God's Hands and I know He makes no mistakes. I am sad at the thought of loosing her, but I am most upset that we are starting over. No home study - no face to go with the name we have chosen for our fourth child.......
I'm ready.....
...for my little girl to wear these,
...and these.
...for the newest Lion Fan Grandchild!
...to wrap her in this blanket my sister made especially for her.
...to put this t shirt on her little body!
...to look in my rear view mirror and see her little face smile back at me =)
......in His time
He makes all things beautiful in His time
Lord please show me everyday as your teaching me
Your way that You do just what You say in Your time.
In Your time, in Your time,
You make all things beautiful, in Your time.
Lord, my life to Your I bring,
May each song I have to sing,
Be to You a lovely thing, in Your time.

I'm sorry. I'll keep hoping and praying. You keep holding on tight to your faith.
I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers for "N"...I am encouraged by your willingness to see God's will in this. It is so hard to let go of the things in life that we so dearly want but knowing that God knows what is best for us and loves us keep us comforted and strengthened and I pray that for you all.
JOYfully in Him,
Kelli
I'm sorry, I really hope you get to keep her.
Just found your blog via ichild. I'm also a SAHM, homeschooling mom to 3 (two bio, one from China). We're undertaking adoption number two.
We'll pray for you. Know that God's hand IS in this. We just got back from Kazakhstan-- spent a month in country- a month away from our three children, a month of expensive living arrangments, not to mention the expense of the adoption, but returned without our son. We had doubts that God was calling us to KZ, but persisted with the adoption, which was not to be. We have since gone back to look at waiting children in India, which is where my heart had been all the time.
Leave it in His hands, that's our plan this time around.

I am so sorry! I had a similar situation before we got Harrison, so I know it is hard, you will be in my prayers!
