Disappointed but not out of Faith

Well, tonight was to be our orientation for our chance to add another one of Gods Children to our home.  Everything that could go wrong DID go wrong.  Started early with Lewis running the first time in like a year.  For the first time ever he pulled a back muscle, so bad that he had to go to the ER.  Poor Daddy.  Then Kyle, woke up with a bad tummy ache.  After taking a hot bath he ended up throwing up two times.  Then he was all better.  Even ate a whole sandwich and a bunch of chips.  Worked hard at school and was totally normal so I thought it was ok.  Then I found out about Lewis pulling his back.  He decided to leave work and go to the ER around 3.  It was not looking good at this time.  My heart sank.  To top it all off I could NOT find my wallet.  I never lose my wallet.  I looked every where.  Even drove to the camper to see if it was left there by mistake.  I looked EVERYWHERE.  All the bags, through the car and Truck.  So frustrating.  Could not find it!!!!!  Finally found it in our camping shoe bucket and the very bottom...  I was not happy.

Last straw,  we cant find Lewis's copy of his birth certif.  I know where I though it would be but I guess it was not there.  We will find that soon.

We had to call and let them know what happened.....

God is GOOD.  The director lives out over here by us and she said that they would just come to me and get the orientation done.   I cant BELIEVE she is going to come to us.  This will be SO much easier.  They can meet my wonderful kids.  See how great our home is for children.  See how much we want to love another little girl.  I am through the roof with excitement.  Next Thursday at 9:30AM.  I am so excited and Faithful that this is Gods Hands.  I think He is making the time line up.  Some really bad stuff would have HAD to happen for us to not go.  So I am counting my blessing.

Lewis and I talked about it for a bit tonight.  He said, he was on board at first.  Like yeah, we can do it. Now, I believe God has done His work on Lewis.  He said, with this look in his eye, that I only see at certain times.  So sweet and so strong.  It was like Faith on Red Bull all that just from his amazing eyes. He said I am actually really excited and a little disappointed that we cant make the orientation tonight.

I am still trusting that God will grow our family and he will intrust us with his children that need a forever family.  We are ready to give a child a great mom and dad.  Plus, bonus the best brothers and sister ever.  God is so good.  I am trusting and will follow his path.  We love you, Jesus.   Please, keep growing our hearts to follow your path.  Please keep growing our families hearts and our friends.  I am so thankful for all of them.  We have told most of our families now and they are all excited for us, they think we are a little crazy, I think we are a little crazy also.  But can not stop the feeling that we are being called for His glory.

Thanks,
Tracie Baker
