Benjamin...

Please keep Benjamin in your prayers over the next few days... for both our adoption process and his health.  We are praying that God will continue to open doors, like He has been!  He is so faithful and knows us so very well...what kind of encouragement we each need, how much each of us can handle...  I'm elbow deep in paperwork right now so I will post more after Saturday...here is where we are right now:
4/9/13 - Melissa's physical appointment for her new life insurance policy; pick up physical reports from our primary care physician; more reading and more online courses
4/10/13 - go to the notary with the forms from our home study as well as a couple for our dossier; Social Worker is picking up the bulk of our paperwork today
4/12/13 - We will be cleaning our house like mad! :-)  (and then the girls and I have Peter Pan rehearsal)
4/13/13 - Peter Pan rehearsal till 3 pm and then our home study visit which will last approximately 4 hours!!!!  (individual interviews with us and our kiddos; house check; paper check etc)

Thank you for your prayers!

Isaiah 61:1

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me, for the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted and to proclaim that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed.
