MONDAY'S HERE AND STILL WAITING...

We were told we would get the birth certificates for our children today, but in Ethiopia today, there was no power. They need power to print them. Everything has been done that can be done by hand, so please pray they have power tomorrow so we can get our birth certificates and an embassy date. We are still praying and trusting the Lord. We are asking God specifically for May 27th, if it be His will. The plane tickets are a part of the reason we are specifically petitioning that date of the Lord. The tickets go up $200/person June 1. Another reason and probably the main one is we just want to get our children. We have been at this for a total of 17 months...and it has been a long 17 months. We are ready to be a family and start bonding face to face. We have been blessed to send many gifts to our children with other families traveling, so we have been bonding thus far only through pictures. May God grant that we would meet face to face May 25. May He also grant our birth certificates tomorrow. In Jesus Name. Amen
