Adoption.. a total leap of faith...

My husband and I have 4 kids, between us. Why on earth do we want to adopt again, I keep getting asked this by well meaning friends, family, and coworker. The only answer is because God has guided us to this. I have faith it will be as he wants.
I want Elijah home, yesterday. But a mound of paperwork and a HUGE amount of money is what is in the way, the paperwork is underway. The funding .. now that is something I am working on but not gaining as much ground as I wish I was. BUT.. As we found out with Alinas adoption it will happen in His time, when and how He wants.
Literally the week before I was to go get Alina, the funding I had worked out fell though...Amazingly, things worked out and she has now been home for four years.
WhenI got the initial itch to adopt again, Dan was no where near there. Adopting a child with Down Syndrome... never though he would even consider..
We haave how commited to the most beautiful boy in the world and he has Down syndrome. When the Lord made Daniel ready, I knew he was truely in control of this.. In HIS time, Have Faith..
Thank you Lord for guiding this journey ..
