We can barely believe we are in the countdown to Joshua's court date! 20 more days and we could be new parents of our boy, Joshua Israel. How exciting! We will find out around that same time how quickly they can set a court date for Julianna. We are still praying to be able to bring them home together. Two trips sounds absolutely exhausting!!
God has been amazing to us recently. We can tell He is accelerating things as we draw closer to bringing our kids home. We figured we would have to live on a little less as far as clothing and those things with five children. Through people handing very nice clothes down and some garage sales that were complete jackpots we now look in our kids' closets and realize that they have never had this many nice clothes ever! What a blessing!
Some friends of ours gave us a crib that is nearly new for next to nothing. We've found car seats and strollers and pack and plays at friends' garage sales. Its been amazing! We are all ready furniture wise except for a high chair. Isn't God wonderful? We are still praying about a vehicle.
My sister got married in August to the most wonderful man from Uganda. He has lived in Houston for many years. His sister came from London and was just a precious person. What a wedding, beautiful to the eye, touching to the soul, and absolutely anointed! The reception afterwards was close to a worship service at times, dancing to Israel Houghton! We had a blast!
We all miss Amy so much, but are happy for her new life. Hoping for some nieces and nephews soon!
Thank you for praying! How exciting to dream about Christmas this year, our home filled with excited children, two of which will change our lives forever. We are blessed.
Pastor Kurt and JoLynn
