Exclamation Please Pray For Us-Committee Tomorrow

Could I ask for prayer? Committee meets tomorrow on a sweet little boy that would make a fantastic addition to our family. We want him to go to the famiy that would be best for him but lets face it, we want that family to be us! I have tried not to get my heart tied up but this is his second committee. They postponed the first one right in the middle so they could make sure they were doing the right thing for him. That was two months ago and I have tried to keep it out of my mind but now that tomorrow is the day, its back on my mind.

Sorry for rambling, we just need prayer for acceptamce of whatever decision is made and to be ready to bring this little man home if its God's will! *taking a deep breath*

PS I think I should take my older daughter to the movies today...what do you think?

Praying!

I am praying for the little one, and you/your family as well. May God hold each of you closely, and may you feel the incredible depth of his love for you. And if this little boy is supposed to be a part of your family, I know he WILL be!

Nancy

Any news yet?? I've been to a few committees and know how tough it is. Just read your post this evening, but will pray anyway.

Thanks Anna! You are right, today is a better day! Last night I checked me email before going to bed and my CW sent an email saying that when he returned from committee he had an email from another CW wanting to take us to committee again already. He asked if DH and I were discussing the emotional roller coaster. I am still guarding my heart but thankful for the confirmation of hope that we will be getting a child and it will be the one that God chose for us!

Thanks for your prayers. I will let you know when the next date is set so you can all hold my hand again! In the meantime, I think someone said they have committee on the 27th, we'll have to hold hands with her for the next ten days!

Thanks again...

MamaJem,
I'm sorry you weren't chosen for the little boy. BUT we know your child is out there and I will continue to pray for you!
Hugs!

Mamajem,
I am so sorry that I missed your news. I was caught up in my own self-pity etc. I apologize for my inconsideration and do want you to know that I have been praying for you.

I pray that YOUR child will come to you very soon and all this heartache will be but a vague memory.

Keep the faith and your chin up girl.

We're all here rooting for you!

T
