God IS Providing!



God Will Provide... God IS Providing!!!!
On Thursday morning, I woke up to email!! A little note from the boys that would bring a smile to all our faces! I thought I would share it with all of you who visit! This is what it looked like... exactly what I thought too. :) ... Whoa! Then of course I was squealing with delight, excited to know what it said.

Добрий день! Вадим І Валерій попросили написати Вам листа. Вони стоять поряд і передають Вам великий привіт! Запитують, як Ваші справи? Кажуть, що дуже сумують за Вами і якщо, їх запросять до Америки то хотіли б їхити лише до Вас. У них в школі все добре, гарно навчаються, стараннно готують домашні завдання. Валерій запитує чи приїдете ви до них у гості в Україну? З найкращими побажаннями, Вадим Валерій.

This what it said translated.

Vadim and Valera asked us to write you a letter. They are standing by me and ask to say you "Hi". They ask how are you doing? They say they really miss you and if they will be invited to America again, they'd like to go only to your home. Boys are doing good, they study really well and do their home works in the best way. Valera's asking if you'll visit them in Ukraine?Best regards from Vadim and Valera.

I really want to go to them, and hug and kiss them but now is not the time. Dawson is still to young and the funds God is providing we feel are for the adoption. We are ecstatic to tell you we have saved, raised and been handed the funds to start our dossier! We are thrilled to tell you that in 7 weeks and 4 days GOD has provided $8,000! This is an amazing journey, I can only say that living by faith is incredible! I can't get enough of it! I want to strive to be better at it. We're praising our Heavenly Father for providing for us and these precious boys! For those who are worried about the finances, God favors adoption! He WILL provide for His children through adoption. Why wouldn't He, He adopted each of us! We are His children. I'm SO excited.

It's been 67 days since we saw them in person last. Three months until summer hosting. :) What is SO amazing and encouraging is our son Bryce, he asked to sell some of his toys to bring them home faster. He also encouraged me not to let anyone run into our car, because then we would need to use money to fix our car and he said, "then it would take forever". I'm so blessed to see his heart for the Lord. He is becoming more like Christ each day and it makes my heart sing a song, a beautiful song.

Thank you!! Each of you for supporting us!! Prayers are continually needed. We want God's will in our lives and the lives of our children. Your prayer and support is so encouraging.

A wonderful Christian Ukrainian woman came and taught me and two host moms how to make Borscht. This was SO much fun and all the food was delicious! I could eat it every day. I'm so thankful for the ladies I have met through this process and how hosting two children orphaned by circumstance is changing my life!
