When we arrived back on the St. David's campus this August many people asked us if we already had our baby. As it turns out, we are probably quite a few months away from being able to hold and care for our little blessing.

Since many of you may check in regularly to see what's happening, we didn't want to leave you in the dark about the slowdown.

When we started our process we were hoping that the entire process would take 12-14 months from start to finish. We were on pace for this kind of time frame - whipping out the paperwork portion of the process with time to spare.

Once our paperwork was in China (logged into China March 21) we were left to wait - which is by far the hardest part of the journey. God's grace is sufficient though, and even though China seems to have purposefully slowed its process, we know that He will be faithful!

As China slows down, God is giving us more time to raise the money necessary for the adoption.

We are praying that we will not only be able to come up with all of the money without borrowing, but also that we will continue to be patient in the process.
