(pre) Adoption Timeline

Our "Adoption Timeline" is very unique to us, as is everyone's I suppose. Today I get to update it with REAL movement toward bringing our little girl home. As I look back at what I had posted as my "A.T." I am so in awe at ALL God has done for us, and how He has worked every little detail out for His ultimate glory. I'm going to edit my adoption timeline, but I want to post what I HAD as my adoption timeline before I change it. So here it is... Sept. 15, 2009 - Information meeting with Lifeline. We made our decision....we are going to adopt!!!! Oct. 3, 2009 - We raised our first $212.70 from a consignment sale. Only about $34,787.30 to go. Nov. 27, 2009 - Opened Adoption Account with $232.70. Dec. 21, 2009 - Made a deposit of $475.00 into adoption account today. Only about $34,292.30 left to go. July 29, 2010 - Sold pedi chairs and deposited $600 into account. Ah, that felt GREAT!!! Also got a $190 gas check for a workshop I went to this summer. Also able to put it in as well. It is slow, but I LOVE depositing into this account. June 13, 2011 - Made an inquiry about A. June 14, 2011 - Read a blog post asking if someone might be N's mom and dad. Contacted K about N. June 15, 2011 - Got A's file. June 21, 2011 - Put K at W in touch with K at N to help us find N's file. In this crazy mix, we have lost 4 precious loved ones, moved, remodeled, and moved again (almost) :). We've added pets and changed jobs, moved up grade levels, lost teeth and tonsils, had a car wreck, and seen God protect us more than we ever deserve. Our oldest asked the Lord into his heart and was baptized. I've met "A's" momma, and found out that "N" has a momma coming for him. We have turned in our application and found our own precious one that God has just for our family. We've played baseball, soccer, basketball, and all of that again since this last timeline update. God has been so good and so faithful and so THERE with us, even when things were B.A.D. May all the glory and all the praise for all this be His and His alone. And now, I will joyfully go update our Adoption Timeline...the best is yet to come!
