Well, it's been a month and we still have not had any additional placements. This time around, though I am feeling anxious and a bit impatient, I am finding it easier to just sit back, relax and really leave this one in God's hands. I don't know if it is because I have learned you just can't rush God's plan (ha! you know me better than that!) or if I am just enjoying what we already have and so I am not noticing the time passing like I did before. Either way it is a much less agitating experience being on the waiting list this time around than last. Who knows if I will be so patient in a couple of months though! :)
In the mean time, we still have lots of projects going on at the house and plenty to keep us busy with the boys. We have our Mommy and Daddy trio to Vegas soon and we were hoping to plan a long weekend trip with the boys - maybe Sea World? With so much going on I pray daily that we are ready for whatever God is willing to give us.
Of course Patrick and I continue to discuss and pray about God's plan for our family. Some days I wish my house was bigger so we could do more of what I know God has called us to do. Other days I am secretly (though I am smart enough to know God sees!) glad that it isn't. There is so much fear of the unknown and while most of you know me as the one who jumps first and then prays for a soft landing while I am still in the air, there are days that I tend to lean more towards Patrick's practical approach to examine all minutia before making a decision to consider moving forward. (we really do make a great team!) So as I tick down the list of "to dos" and prepare and plan and plan some more, I keep my phone close by....just in case that call comes in that could once again change our lives for the better!
