Let me dream of a beautiful rainbow family...of big, brown eyes with bouncing curls...of smiling blue eyes and golden hair...of sleepy eyes and raven tresses...
Born worlds apart,
yet altogether in mama and daddy's heart. Lord, please fill our home with smiling faces of little people from different places.

Waiting...

 Waiting is another word for adoption. :) Waiting for our new I-800a approval and extension. Our psychological addendum and home study addendum are filed at ICBF in Colombia waiting on the I-800a to come. So just waiting on USCIS.. We walk down the coffee isle in Walmart and the only coffee I see is Colombian coffee. I bought some bananas and looked at the sticker and here they were from Colombia! Made my day!
  I'm reading Kisses From Katie. The way we feel about Colombia must be similar to the way Katie feels about Uganda. I have read 2 chapters and I believe it is the most inspiring book I've ever read (besides the Bible:). Truly it is a MUST READ for all. If everyone would know God as Katie knows Him, all the troubles that would simply be gone from this old world. I pray that people may learn to know my God and Katie's God. An excerpt from Kisses From Katie:
  But is is simple in that each and every one of us was ultimately created to do the same thing. It will not look the same. It may take place in a foreign land or it may take place in your backyard, but I believe that we were each created to change the world for someone. To serve someone. To love someone the way Christ first loved us, to spread His light. -Katie Davis
  What are we really here for? May we catch a glimpse of the only reason. To show God's love.
