In the last 24 hours I have:
shopped for supplies
packed
taken my son to the doctor
taken my son for a haircut
went to the chiropractor
and booked my airline tickets...
with the 100% God provided money for our airfare!!!!!! The entire amount has been received and I stand in humbled awe of God's goodness. I am partly in awe because I absolutely don't deserve any of His grace that has been lavished upon me.
Thank you to everyone who has prayed for us on this journey (please don't stop now). I will leave Friday afternoon and arrive Saturday in Ghana. Our together forever begins April 3rd and I am looking forward to the joys and the challenges that come along with it.
In adoption the fearful become beloved, the scorned become adored, the nameless become cherished, the lonely become the laughing, and death becomes life abundant. In adoption, we can clearly see God taking ashes from here and ashes from there and making something truly beautiful with them.

I can't help but peek at whats going on! I'm not supposed to be typing or "clicking" but I just can't stay away! God is so good Stephanie, what an awesome thing, your daughter is coming home :) I'm praying about adopting again real soon. His Will be done. We don't have a dime but I'm praying about a 10 year old in China with scoliosis. Can't wait to wrap up this journey to Ghana with you!
Have a safe journey & I hope for a smooth transition with your daughter. I can't wait to see pictures :)
