It has been a tough couple of weeks. I'll spare you the details, but can tell you that I've been trying to figure out what it is that God wants me to learn through this. And I'm not sure yet. But one thing that has been made abundantly clear to me is that we are blessed with some amazing friends. My friend, Erin H., showed up at my house last night to give me a CD that had been an encouragement to her. BTW, I played it at full blast and drove the boys crazy, Erin! It was awesome. And then our friends Todd and Jill called and invited us to go out of town with them tomorrow. We plan on going and we look forward to that fellowship!

On the adoption front, Jeff and I have decided to switch to Vietnam. Vietnam had been closed to American adoptions for several years but opened back up last week. It is a very third world country and in desperate need of adoptive families. This may speed things up a bit for us, but whatever happens, we're now praying for our baby girl in Vietnam. She may be born already!!!

Also, we are having our big adoption fundraiser on July 17. I've been working on a CD that is finally finished. Jeff and I have been copying it ourselves and will be selling them for $10. All proceeds will go towards the adoption.
