About Me

My photo
My husband and I, the Dynamic Duo, have been married since 2003. We've weathered the storm of chronic disease (diagnosis 2006), infertility (diagnosis 2007), turning 30 (2006/2007 respectively) a first adoption (2009) of a tender hearted, compassionate Ukrainian BIG boy (born 2006), who has told us he'd like a baby sister, baby brother, big brother, and REALLY big sister. We recently completed our second Ukrainian adoption journey, which brought us a daughter (born 2005). We'll see what else God brings our way!

Are you ready to pray?

I'm packed and surprised at how little I packed.  I did so much better this time!  I leave in less than 24 hours, and I already need prayer!!!

Can you believe it?  Massive storms have come through the area flooding most major highways and causing lots and lots of chaos.  Fortunately we don't live in a flood zone, so our basement never floods.  However, more rain is on the way, more thunder and lightning.  Which means more flooding.  Add to that the Iceland volcano eruption, which halted Europe travel a few weeks ago, but isn't supposed to affect my flight, and you've got one crazed woman!

I know, I know.  God is in control, but it feels like this adoption is getting off on the wrong foot.  But God knows what He's doing...right?!  Will you comment your favorite comfort Bible verse?  I think I could use it right now!

Natalie-- here is mine after packing the house last year and moving across the big pond while Eric WAS stuck in Sweden due to the volcano.
"So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."

Prov 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path.

Jer 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a future and a hope.

Praying for you today as you travel!

For one of my favorite verses, I know the song version. "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, then all these things shall be added unto you. Alelu - aleluya." You know, I don't know how to spell aleluja...ya...yah. I can say it, though. Слава Богу!
