Extreme Home Makeover quote

This past week on Extreme Home Makeover (from the Green Bay Wisconsin area), there was a quote from a Father who was stricken down (quite suddenly) by cancer. Ty and the gang, as a part of the extreme makeover, built a large stone bench with this quote from the father:
There's a lot of things to think about, but nothing to worry about.
- Matt Koepke

That quote just hits home. As Jodie and I ponder the possibility of (possibly large delays) in the USCIS processing of our I-171H form, I am hoping that we can keep the mindset that this process is moving at the Lord's pace, an not necessarily ours. And if we should encounter delays, however difficult they might be, that we can look for the blessings in them. Like more time to prepare our son, our home, our family, to prepare ourselves.

We would love for our adoption process to be smooth sailing all the way through, and have our second child home soon. Your prayers can not only help to make that happen, but even if this adoption does begin to stretch out, our family can be strengthened through your prayers and support.

Peace...
