tomorrow, tomorrow, please pray for tomorrow!

well this week has been full of excitement. on monday night we got an email from our social worker that she was coming to our house on tuesday (yesterday) to meet with us. YIKES!!! and YAY!!!!! we rushed to get the house in some sorts of order before she arrived.

yesterday we had the opportunity to have 2 ladies who work with different 3rd party adoption agency here in tennessee alongside DCS (department of children services). they were wonderful. we had a pleasant afternoon talking with them and sharing our hearts for adoption, kids, and the desire to open our home. they asked lots of questions and we asked lots of questions and we felt so calm. we knew that so many people were praying for that meeting and we felt it. your prayers were heard because even our dog jackson was wonderful. usually he doesn't like strangers coming over but he warmed right up to the 2 ladies. that was such a simple blessing that God gave but made such a huge impact.

now for the big prayer request and news. the ladies told us about a possible sibling group and they are meeting with the sibling group and their case worker tomorrow to see if we are a match!!!!!! wow, can you believe it? we could know something as early as tomorrow. it's pretty overwhelming. we aren't really sure what to think right now because we just have no idea. tomorrow they could decide that we don't match and then we see what else is out there or they could decide we do match and then we begin the process of how quickly can we get them in our home. it's like we are sitting on the edge of our seats not really sure weather to scream, shout, cry, laugh, freak out or what. so please PLEASE pray tomorrow for that meeting. pray that God would give divine clarity to everyone making that huge decision and that God would show them what is best for those kids. also, pray that God would prepare us for whatever the answer is whether good or bad.

i will update later this week when we here more news. i know y'all are sitting on the edge of your seats with us. we love and thank you for it!
