All I Want For Mother's Day Is A I-171H

That's all! Please, Please!!!!

All kidding (but I'm really not kidding) aside, we leave town next Thursday for a vacation and I really want to go without wondering if the 171 is sitting in the mail box. I would REALLY REALLY LOVE to find it in the mail this weekend so I can take it to Austin first thing Monday for State Certification and then fedex that baby to AWAA. Then I could seriously relax on our vacation.

This Saturday will be 3 weeks of waiting and I truly didn't think it would take this long. I just want to be officially waiting for a baby instead of a document. Aria - I want you home like yesterday!

Tick Tock goes the clock! I AM PRAYING!
I am so ready to begin that countdown to referral! I know and you know that HIS plan is perfect, however, I am praying he would shower you in blessings and put your mind at ease and deliver that I-171 TODAY! Maybe we need to make Officer Bruno cookies and remind him just how important that last document is. Truly ... think about it, is our government's final stamp that you can bring home beautiful Aria Hope! WOW ...they wear big shoes!
PRAYING PRAYING PRAYING!
Love you

My Father, I come to You on behalf of your favorite child and my sister, Cindy. Lord, she is tired of waiting. She is looking to You for this special gift. God, she wants to receive it yesterday--but she trusts YOU for the timing. She does!

We stand together right now and say that YOU ARE LORD over Aria, over her home right now, over her future home, over her mommy and daddy and sister and destiny. You have good plans for Aria--plans for such great good and not a speck of evil, Lord Jesus--plans to give her a future and a hope. You have amazing plans for Cindy, Billy and Libby as well, my God. YOU know what is best and so, together, God, we wait before You with open hands and uplifted hearts.

God, I ask you to make your desires even more and more Cindy's desires so that she can walk with You in beauty and truth. I ask You to give her a wonderful Mother's Day as she rejoices in the present gift of Libby, the future gift of Aria and the continuing gift of her relationship with You, her loving Father. When they look at her, God, may others see Jesus increasingly and Cindy less and less. Remind her of Your deep and abiding love. Keep her ever in Your name--the one in which we pray--the powerful and mighty and matchless name of JESUS, the one who will make a Way because He is the Way!

AMEN

(and lots of love, too)
