Not Two Weeks But SOONER

Quick update - We actually spoke with our birth mom minutes ago and it went GREAT! We absolutely know the reason it went so well is because of the flurry of prayers lifted up since our blog yesterday. I am utterly amazed at how we can feel people praying for us. Peace comes so quick! THANK YOU!!!

But keep on praying. Our birth mom is dilated three cm and with this being her second baby it could happen any time. Since we might be leaving at a moments notice or over the weekend, I will share some prayer request now.
  • We'd know what day to leave
  • For us to have favor with the hospital staff and attorneys offices
  • For us to get a room or some kind of space where we can be alone with the baby and stay overnight until the baby is discharged
  • Our birth mom would be ready to waive her 30 day rights when signing the paperwork at her discharge from the hospital
  • Our paperwork to be expedited through the California and Georgia legal system. Ten days is generally the least amount of time but we were told to plan to be out there three weeks after the birth.
  • That we would find a clean, comfy, quiet place to stay that has a washer/dryer, kitchen and internet for Bryan to check his email for work

Thank you, thank you, thank you again for the prayers!!!! Love to all!!!!

Wow, this will be an unforgettable time! You made me cry again! Praying that everything is divinely orchestrated and that you both are at peace throughout. May both of you get along wonderfully with her and may God give you words to say to her that are full of life (I know James & I still are impacted by the prophecies you all gave us when we first met). And hope you can keep a sense of humor (watch a funny movie)...you may need that to help with the intensity of it all!
