Two years ago today, we were doing our last minute packing, preparing to leave for Ukraine the next day. We were excited, anxious, nervous...For several years, we had been praying that God would bless us with a child. For the past 9 months, we'd specifically been praying for our son in Ukraine.
The image to the right is the prayer card that we had posted all over our home, our cars, and our desks. God answered our prayers with the son that He had chosen for us. That little 5 year old has grown up so much in two years. He is such a blessing, and we are thankful that God has entrusted him to our care.
Each day, I thank God for my son. And now, I pray a similar prayer for our second child: for his/her health, happiness, and security until we can get to Ukraine and bring him/her home with us.
* Less than 2 weeks left for Vera's fundraiser. Please make a tax-deductible donation today. Every little bit helps, and gets us that much closer to our goal. And please continue to pray for a family to commit to Vera's adoption!

That's a sweet prayer. I hope you will find the child/children God intends for your family and that you wil all remain healthy through this flu!
