Dossier Mailed & 2 Year Anniversary

Well, in the past week we have shipped two sets of documents that make-up 99% of our dosier. The only thing I am waiting on is the apostille on my employment letter that had to be completed in New Hampshire. We also need to go get our local police clearances and that will wrap up our dossier. Hopefully we will have both documents in the next week to ten days. We are also waiting on our CIS appointment to be fingerprinted. We received a letter from them saying they received our application the last week in April. With the last adoption, it only took two weeks to get an appointment. There is a small voice in the back of my head getting a little paranoid about this. The louder voice is reminding me it is all in His timing.

May 20 was the second anniversary of the day we picked up the kids from the detsky dom. Wow time flies, but then again it seems like they have always been home with us. We didn't do anything special other than talk about it over lunch one day. As I look back over the photos, it is amazing to see how much they have grown! Our house is a bit chaotic now days, but not in a bad way. I wouldn't trade one minute of it! I know couples with only one or two kids look at us like we are nuts, but children really are a blessing. I laugh when I hear adults comment about their "private/me" time. You have got to be kidding! Our private time is when we close our eyes at night and got to sleep - but even then there are times when there is a little one between us because they had a bad dream or something.

Dawn and I have a rather unspoken prayer request. If you will, just pray that God will give us wisdom to make the right decision. I know this is cryptic, but it is something that has been weighing heavily on us for several months now.
