Slower than molasses in January

Well we are back at school and the new semester has begun. We have a great building this year and I was excited to have the students back. We also had a wonderful break that was really relaxing and so much fun with friends and family. I also got to see my good friend Tanna and found out she is engaged!!!!!! Congrats Tanna and Cory! Now all of the 407 Milton girls are on their way to wedded bliss.

On the adoption front I would say we are moving at a snails pace but that would mean we are moving at all. So I would say a stand still is more like it. Hence the truth that our adoptions are slower than molasses in January. We keep hearing that we are going to be submitted for the DNA approval for Ellie but it keeps getting delayed. It is so frustrating to not be able to do anything to make this process go any faster. I keep praying for patience and to trust God’s timing but today it seems like a continual process. More of the refining that needs to take place I am sure. On a happier note we are leaving for Guatemala next week to visit! We are so excited to meet Elizabeth and to see Mateo again. Please pray for patience and trust for us both as we wait to hear of any news on the cases.
