Into the Unknown!!!

The girls remind me of that movie MEN IN BLACK in this picture. It was taken when we were in St. Petes in March.  Got the glasses at the dollar store there and they were thrilled. They acted as if they just received designer glasses. I am in awe at how easy these kids have adjusted. I have learned so much from them.  We tend to take things for granted here in USA. They have had to live with a level of faith that is indescribable. We tend to make plans--life goals etc. For them it after their parents died it was a matter of simply believing they would find a family and that their future was in the hands of God....incredible...     These days we are having to follow their example. Our business is very slow and we are just relying on God.  My book is coming out in July or August and I will be embarking on some speaking engagements. A whole new adventure where I can tell the story of a woman who always dreamed about being a mother but doubted she would be after making a life altering choice.....IN the meantime, my own mother sets the standard at being able to thrive and survive through adversity with the best attitude this side of heaven and a feminine strength that can be un noticed because it is so beautiful subtle and not in your face...Life is good, the unknown is scary but I have been in the position before where I have had to hang onto the hem of the Lord's robe for dear life. That is where we are and surrounded by sweetness and adventure all mixed into the future that remains to be seen..pray for our family while in transition...but we are keeping perspective aware of the blessings all around us with good health, good transition and love in our family....Praise to God for the goodness that we have in Him!!!
