Thankful at Thanksgiving

With a continued delay in our paperwork, it is highly unlikely that Caroline will be home with us for Christmas. Despite this disappointment, our family still has much to thank God for as we approach Thanksgiving. We are thankful for:

- 2 precious daughters, one here and one in China
- a trip to China to look forward to in the new year
- a supportive extended family who is as excited to meet Caroline as we are
- friends who are interested in our adoption, pray for us and continually ask
how the process is going
- a church family that ministers to us often during this trial of waiting
- the anticipation of watching our two girls play together soon
- a faithful God who walks this trial with us and renews us daily

"The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am
helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song."
Psalm 28:7

I hope to post with good news about travel very soon!
