Tick Tock Tick Tock...

Hickory Dickory Dock, we're running down the clock, please get to the hospital before we go MENTAL, Hickory Dickory Dock!

Yes, Kindermusik comes in handy for all sorts of things! Our BM got her car back yesterday, Yay, but WHY didn't she go straight to the hospital in it? We dunnoh. Yes, we know...God is in control! Okay, say it again. GOD IS IN CONTROL! In the meantime, we're gonna go worship our sweet Jesus at a church my big brother found for us. Thanks Mal! xoxoxo

To Pennsylvania we go...

Friday, Feb. 26th 9:30 pm

Well, talk about FAITH...here we go! No call that BM is in labor, but tomorrow she'll be 10 dys. past due. So, we're gonna head that direction and she has agreed to let us take her to the hospital if she doesn't have transportation by Monday. Yes, all by FAITH and I must admit, we are both very nervous and excited! We are really gonna miss Jacob and Jonah while we're gone. We wish we could take them with us. Could everybody give them LOTS of hugs while we're gone? We leave tomorrow morning (Saturday) at 8:30 am. Please keep praying :o)

Badee badee badee badee....

No...the title is not a misprint, just don't know what else to say!! Other than, GOD IS IN CONTROL AND WE ARE NOT. Our BM did not make it to the hospital yesterday; says she has her car in the shop and hopes to have it repaired where she can drive herself to the hospital this weekend. Okay, just how long can you carry a baby before it just pops out on it's own?! This poor girl is 8 days past due now and she's GOT to be miserable. I know because I was 10 days past due with Jonah, who was born at 9 lbs. 5 oz. Well, our prayer request is that the car really is in the shop and that it will be fixed very soon and we might see this sweet baby very soon. (We understand if you're tired of reading this drama...we're tired of being in it!) Love everyone :o)

Today's story...

The story today is that our BM (birthmother) went to a hospital last night, one that her friend chose for her which was not the one she'll be delivering at. :/ She told our case worker that she was there for many hours and the ER physician could not examine her as they do not provide prenatal care. She states that she is going to the hospital (where she will be delivering) tonight and hopes that they will induce her as she wants to "get this over with". Please pray for her and pray that she really will go tonight and that we'll be contacted with her status before we go to bed tonight. ;o) We're getting really dizzy from this roller coaster we're on.

Calling all prayer warriors

Okay sweet friends and family, here's where we are: to our knowledge, our birthmother has not had much medical treatment during this pregnancy. She had a checkup back in July and was given a due date of last Wed., the 17th. She lives 45 min. from the closest hospital/clinic and does not have transportation of her own. The agency has worked very hard at getting her to a doctor to be checked. A church close to her was contacted and a volunteer was willing to pick her up and take her, but she was too uncomfortable traveling with a stranger (the agency had done a background check on the volunteer). She has a friend that wants to take her but is having car trouble. It would be so helpful to everyone involved if she could get to a doctor to be checked, to know that everything's okay and get a better idea of an expected delivery time. SPECIFIC PRAYER REQUEST: Please pray that this birthmother will get to a doctor or hospital TODAY and that we will be contacted with the results. Pray for her and the baby she carries. We know this must be a very difficult time for her and we ask that you pray that she feels God's incredible, loving arms around her. ~Donnis

He alone

"Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from Him. HE ALONE is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress, I will not be shaken." Psalm 62:5-6

Even though we don't know what's going on, even though we don't know if the birthmother has seen a doctor or not, or how close she is to going into labor, OR if she hasn't already gone into labor and we not know about it, WE WILL TRUST IN GOD ALONE. He knows, and He is our fortress. Love you guys :o)

Still TRUST-waiting...

Still TRUST-waiting for the "gone into labor" call :o) God is faithful \o/
