Oh, happy day!

My dear friends have a TRAVEL DATE to go get their little Miss.  Abby blogs here, and I would love for them to be covered in prayer as they journey to eastern Europe and bring their daughter home.  They will start their adventure of thousands of miles this Sunday, please pray for smooth/uneventful travels, good weather and safety for them.  Also, please pray for peace and guidance as they begin to really learn the sweet little blessing, that is their daughter.  She has spent 3-ish years in an orphanage, and adjusting to a mom and dad and life outside those walls will be a big change for her.  Praying that God will knit their hearts together as a family, and give Eva Claire understanding and peace as her world begins to change.  Their story is such a great story and such an amazing example of how God's plans are so good.  I am so excited I can barely sit still.

I just had to add this picture of myself and Eva Claire from one of our trips to her orphanage.  I remember thinking as I held her, that one day she would be held in the arms of her parents and carried out of that room of the orphanage to begin her trip home.  Home.  Such a wonderful word.

Thank you God for this little blessing and for the beautiful and obedient hearts of her parents, Daniel and Abby.  They have fought the good fight, that is called the process of international adoption!  It's been a long road of "hurry up and wait" and now it's finally time to go!!  Praise God, His blessings are many.
