I can't believe it's June! June means homestudy is going to Ghana (when it finally gets signed!) and camp and the start of summer! So many things for which I am excited about!
Why is it that when I have to wait a week for something it feels like a year? We are still waiting for our homestudy to get the signature it needs....I can imagine one would put off reading something about a family that is 24 pages long but I'm hopeful that maybe today or tomorrow she will feel the need to get it done and over with!
We did manage to score a bunkbed over the weekend for $100 which was nothing short of a miracle! Thanks to some good friends from church who are giving us a loft-bed, we now have the bed situation figured out for when Akwasi arrives! Only things left to procure are a range of boys clothes from 2t-4t (just a few outfits until we know what size he is) and a couple pairs of shoes in different sizes, and a carseat.
This week while I wait I think I will get going on medical POA's for the kids while we are gone, and more grant applications. The kids are getting excited too, and every night have been praying for Akwasi which is so neat to hear them start to understand what is happening. Aubrey on the other hand is in for a rude awakening with no longer being center of attention around here.
God is good and I am enjoying the process even in the wait. He has been taking me through the psalms this week, I can't keep my head out of them. I keep finding ways to sneak off from chores for a minute to read my Bible. It's better than food! I can't live without it! And no, I haven't always felt this away about reading my Bible...I definitely go through times where I forget to read it, put it off, and am otherwise bored by it and fall asleep! (just sayin!) but when I don't feel like reading it I have been asking God to make me hungry for His word. He answers prayers when they line up with His will, and His will is always for us to want to be closer to Him.
