I have been learning a lot through this adoption process. One, I realized that I can be a total nut about paperwork and insisting at the strangest times of day (like midnight) that we sit down and fill something out. Two, that I'm not as patient as I once thought. Three, that my life is so full and blessed that I need to slow down and enjoy what I have right here and trust that the Lord will see this adoption through and my obsessiveness will not make it go any faster or smoother. I don't deserve the many blessings in my life, it seems that they keep flowing and flowing and I'm overwhelmed with thankfulness to my Abba Father. I am learning to count my blessings every day and take note of every moment of Grace given to me by Him.
We are progressing, probably more that I feel at times. Just sent out some more paperwork to the home study agency and it feels really good. We are hoping to have the dossier and the home study complete by Thanksgiving. I don't think that's too much to ask, it's better than what I have been aiming for. ...I wanted things done by September. I'm so delusional sometimes. :) Anyway, the Warners will keep living this wonderful life, loving each other to the fullest, dreaming about our little one out there, and praising our Father every step of the way. He is so good.
