All in God's timing

God is rarely early, but He's NEVER late.

I needed that reminder yesterday. It has been a rough 10 or so days, and I was feeling very much at the "end of my rope." But as always, God is faithful and provides just what we need exactly when we need it. Those words (and 12 new pictures of our guy!) broke my funk and put me back on track.


And His timing is once again perfect. Today we got the news we've been hoping for since early February:


Our LOA is here!!


When I texted Hailey, she said "Hey Mom. You need 72 pitch in your text messaging!" She's right. I am thrilled beyond measure. We'll sign this piece of paper and send it back to China. Once they receive it, they'll issue us a Travel Invitation, which says we have 90 days to go to China and complete Logan's adoption. We'll be there!! Right now, it seems that we may need to postpone our travel just a bit and go in mid-May. I'd love to go as soon as we get our TA, but Jim is very busy at work right now with some huge projects and some significant travel anticipated between now and late April. May is much better for him. It opens the possibility that Brent can, once again, be able to go with us. And, although missing 2 weeks of school would be hard for the girls, they would be able to do it with enough advance warning. And so, May it may be. It also means that we are winding down our "school year" commitments here and can settle into a summer routine with many hands to help Logan settle and learn, and watch Ryan when Logan has visits to Children's Hospital. Those are good things.


Smiling today, and most definitely PRAISING God for His provision,


Jennifer
