Happy Friday! and some special prayers

I am preempting my post today to say CONGRATULATIONS to two of my blogging buddies.

This family received their referral for their sweet baby boy this week. They are with a different agency so their little guy won't be staying at the same place as peanut but I am sure he is being very well taken care of until his Mom and Dad can come pick him up. She wrote a very cute referral day story. Almost missed the exciting news :)

And this family received their referral for their sweet baby girl. She is quite possibly in the same room as peanut. I am SO excited for Leah and her family. She got their referral just in time. They leave for Ethiopia on Sunday. She gets to hug her little girl in just a few days. (She is traveling on a different visa so she has to go over before her court date) I can't wait to hear about her trip. She is definitely one cool lady with a really big heart.

And while I am at it let's give some good cheers to this family as they are working their way up the list. They are so close to their son. I can't wait to hear their good news.

Then there is this family that made a tough decision to switch agencies and do what is best for their family. I am so happy they they have found peace and will hopefully be on the wait list VERY soon.

Lastly, please pray for this family and this family. I won't talk about why they need the prayers but just if you remember please pray for them. They each have their own stuff going on and I hope they find peace, answers, and joy along their paths.
