Home Study

Tuesday night went really well.   We were blessed to be able to do it together instead of having separate interviews.  We  bounced things back and forth off of each other as we answered questions.  I defintitely felt surrounded by God's grace.  As we sat there talking with our sweet home study specialist (Kay), she encouraged us and gave us a little boost of confidence.  It was also nice for us to be able to reflect on our marriage and think back to us starting our family.  So many wonderful memories already.  I look forward to the next chapter in our life as well.  We will have our in-home interview next Wednesday.  She will come to our home and also interview Abby and Gracie.  After that, we will be finished with that step! 


This has been a challenging week for me.  I have so much on my mind I want to share, but it will have to wait for now. 


I will leave you with a verse that has been on my heart:


Because of the Lord's great love, we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.  They are new every morning, great is your faithfulness.  I say to myself,  "The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." 


Lamentations 3:22-25

We love you all,

Kelli
