We have exciting news...I might have a new nephew!!
My sister and her husband have been going through the adoption process and they got a call this morning that they have been selected and the baby has been born! There is tons of "God-o-inces" in this situation that can hardly be put into words. Just two of them is that Stacie and Todd picked the baby's name to be Jordan, months ago...well, the baby is now in foster care and is a week old. No where on the documents has the name Jordan appeared, nor have the agency people even known that was going to be the baby's name...but the people at the foster place have been calling him Jordan. Now, if that doesn't tell you that your name has been written in the Book of Life, I don't know what does! They were shocked! Also, Stacie had a dream over a month ago about this baby and when it was going to be born and what agency they would be working with and ALL of it has come to pass. It's startling and very crazy!! So, all this to say, there is much to be done still. The paperwork on the birth mother's side has been processed and the last day for her to change her mind is this coming Monday. Stacie and Todd are expected to fly out around Monday to go and get their baby boy. They are continuing to pray the Lord's will in all of this and would love for you to pray with them. They are nervous and very excited all at the same time!! We are continuing to pray that this baby is theirs and the Lord would continue to make it obvious and take care of all the details.

Oh how WONDERFUL!!!! I'm so excited for them!
OH my goodness- he is too cute for words! I'll be praying for them- what an amazing journey adoption usually is. God is so good and I'll be praying for his will to be done for them and for little Jordan!
