Please pray that God would make the path to these children straight and clear in the next 24 hours. Sometime between the hours of midnight tonight and 9am tomorrow, Eden will have her Tuberculosis test read.We’d love your prayers that she would have no signs of TB and even that the results would not show a false positive (which would require more testing and delay).
We had a friend in May who prayed specificically that, unlike the first 18 months of our adoption process, this last segment would be smooth and quick. We had our court date 3 days early and passed. We got our birth certificates and the children’s passports in record time. We were assigned our embassy date a day before expected and we were assigned the exact date (July 15th) that we’d been praying for since early May. This was the one we’d prayed for even before we had a court date.
Only God could do these things.
We will likely be en route to DC with bags packed and passports in hand when we get the news. Unless He decides to show Himself a little early 
The beauty of sailing through what should/could be a tenuous process is that throughout the beginning of our adoption process, we’ve seen Him allow delay after delay after delay … and even then we couldn’t deny that He was so good and so faithful. The God in times of plenty and in times of want doesn’t change who He is.
And us?
We are prepared for the 11th hour response. Our bags are packed. Our preparations have been made. We’re sleeping in our clothes, so to speak, and just waiting for the call to come.
And…if we hear what we hope to hear–we’re hopping on that plane at 2PM tomorrow!

Praying…what a beautiful picture of God’s faithfulness:)
I cannot wait to hear the news – and I am sure that Eden is going to test negative – God is working a miracle and thank you for the privilege in getting to share in it with you all through this blog!! Love and safe travels!
Sara– I just recently learned about your huge and spectacular life changes.. and Susan Kyner told me of your blog. Today I have spent a great deal of time reading it, crying with tears of joy, catching myself up on your life since our Bible study days, and being so happy for you! You are gifted with an articulate, winsome way of expressing yourself in words. I hope to hear from you and reconnect. I am so privileged to now know what the Lord God has been up to! I honestly cannot wait to meet your children. Much love, Lynda
