news

surprise.



Here's our latest news & to say it's been quite an exciting roller coaster ride the last several weeks, would be quite an understatement.

Emotional highs.  Doubts.  And much, much prayer.

For those of you who have been praying...thank you.  While the facebook picture (seen below for my non-FB friends :), may indicate a potential referral for our adoption, the above picture clarifies that our news is not found in Uganda...yet...but in my tummy.  We are 13 weeks pregnant and due 4-1-13...yes, April Fool's Day...which isn't really funny or foolish, eh?!

Many of you out there are probably wondering how this effects our adoption status?
Well...to answer your question, we are going to stay on the same list, same pace, same progress as we currently are.  We are sensing (optimistically speaking), we are close to seeing a picture of our Ugandan daughter soon. Regardless if our referral occurs soon, our potential travel/court dates would not most likely happen for several months...we will prayerfully wait to see how God orchestrates these details.

We are excited yet anxious for what the dear Lord has in store for our family in 2014.  Needless to say....three words come to mind:

prayers.still.needed.


Much love,
A, K, Haven & growing family
