We got some disappointing news today. There was a three year old girl in Ethiopia who was available for adoption. Our social worker asked us if we wanted to be considered for that child and of course we said yes. We knew that it was a long shot because we don't have all of our paperwork in to Ethiopia yet (still waiting for our paperwork to come back from our finger prints.) This little girl was placed with another family today. They had all of their paperwork in Ethiopia. It is hard when you are shown a picture of a child, then you have to wait several day to find out if she will be ours. Even though we are disappointed, we know that God already has our child picked out for us, and we will just have to wait until he is ready to give her to us. Also, what a fabulous day for this little girl. She went from being an orphan to having a family today. If you are the praying type, please pray for this little girls to have a smooth transition into her new family.
