"So, did you buy a house?"

We hear that question a lot lately. The simple answer is "no." But we are happy with that. We feel very content that this is the direction the Lord is leading us. We looked at the houses and we even thought about buying one. However, we are not yet at a place to carry two mortgages. So, we wait. And that is totally fine!

We are still working out the logistical details, but we still are planning on renting out our house. We still have an interested tenant or two (still without advertising it AT ALL!!). For now, we will stay in our place through the summer, then move forward from there.

As far as the adoption process, we have met with an amazing organization, No One in Need, and they have offered to help us! That is HUGE for us. We have so much love and support all around us. It really is a blessing! We are also meeting with two families this weekend. One family has adopted and the other family is just about to finalize their adoption (eeek! I'm so excited for them!!!). We have selected our agency and have finished our application. Yes, it took us a long time. But we wanted to make sure this was the right place for us. It is hard, because we do not know anyone personally who has used the agency. We have virtually met various couples through blogs, etc, but it is just not the same!

Please pray for us for the following -

- selling our car for a smaller one (anyone want a Sante Fe?!?)

- renting out our home in September

- acceptance into our agency

- peace and direction in all of our decisions
