The Hard Choices

It is that time in our adoption process where agencies are starting to call us and offer us situations. With several agencies calling, I know that it is going to be a difficult decision. I know that God is in control and that our baby is out there. I am praying for Steven and I to be in total unity and we will just know. Right now three agencies want to submit us to about 5 situations. Our case worker, who did our home study, called today and there is another agency in Kansas that has a situation that she thought we would be interested in. It is exciting and nerve racking to think that in just a few months we will be holding our little one.

Pray for us in this time to know Gods heart through this process. That we would be in total unity when we get the call that could change our lives forever. Pray for our birth mother and our little one that God would encounter then and angels around them.

{Small note to this post. Not every situation that agencies offer us is the best. Some are too expensive, some do not fit with in our profile, some have too many unknowns. Some are just calling to say they have this situation, but need more paper work from us. Some by the time we make a decision the birth mother has changed her mind. We are trying to be wise and listen for the voice of our Heavenly Father.}

I am praying for you, knowing the Father has the perfect situation for you. Praying the peace of God for you. It must be a stressful time. Looking forward to hearing that baby Cooper has come home.
BTW, I am Shanon and Stephanie's mom :)chelsey123
