Putting it in God's Hands

May 26th, 2011
We had our SDA appointment today. We went in feeling pretty good and ready to hear about our girls. The lady there told our translator something and I could tell it wasn't something we wanted to hear. It was something I never expected to hear. Although I had heard it had happened to other families I just never dreamed it would be what we would hear. But we were told that our Emily(her name on Reeces Rainbow site) was not available for adoption. We won't go into details but we will not be able to bring our little girl home. Miranda is available and we will be bringing her home as planned. Though we are devastated by this news we know we are meant to bring home 2 little girls so they allowed us to look at some other files. We are trying for one little girl in particular but if unable to get her we will be getting another one. This was very difficult to look at these precious faces and have to pick one. We will be able to give more information tomorrow once we know for sure which one. We will find out at 2:00pm our time and then go immediately to the orphanage to visit the girls. We are in shock and very sad right now but we are leaving it in God's hands. I guess this was his plan all along. His way of getting us here, we just don't know. We know His ways are best and we have to trust him to make this all work out for his good. We will post pictures of the girls once we know. Please pray for Emily that what has happened is for her good that she is going where she is supposed to go and that she will have a good life wherever that is. It is not for us to question why, we are believing God for his plan in all of this even though it is difficult. Pray for us tomorrow as we meet our girls and that God gives us a peace about the whole situation.
