In the meantime...

We are in the final stages of our wait to bring home baby Kate. We expect to receive a call within the next 2-3 weeks letting us know that we are cleared for travel.... It's a heart-pounding, extremely exciting time in our house! In the meantime, would you pray for SMOOTH TRANSITIONS for us all! That Tim and I would be submerged in grace and mercy, that Callie and Claire would quickly and happily adjust to another sibling, and mostly for Kate ~ who will be facing the greatest changes of all. Everything she knows is about to change: familiar places and smells, the sound of the Korean language, a major time change, her formula, her foods, her surroundings, sleeping in a crib, new faces, riding in a car seat for the first time.... the list is endless! It is to be expected that Kate will most likely have a period of grieving. Mainly for the loss of her foster mother. Grief is a good thing. Please pray that her grief be healthy, and hopefully short-lived, and that she will then bond and attatch to Tim and I quickly and in a healthy way. Pray with me that the Holy Spirit will groom her heart for these changes, and that she may embrace us readily!
