Choosing to believe

I know that I haven't been so good about keeping up with my blog.
Life gets busy and I am not one for writing so it just gets pushed to the side.
But I did think I ought to take some time to update where we are in our adoption story.
We received our official LOA (letter of acceptance) from China last Tuesday. We overnighted our immigration paperwork to USCIS in TX and overnighted our visa paperwork to our agency. Our immigration paperwork got sent back to us because our agency had given us the wrong address. So I had to overnight it again on Friday. Hopefully it arrived on Monday. Our USCIS caseworker said that it usually takes 10-14 days for her to receive our paperwork and that she would process it as soon as she gets it. I am choosing to believe that it will happen earlier. I am also choosing to believe that God can work miracles in our adoption story. I pray that we are able to get Phynley around Easter. I know that He may not choose to allow that to happen but this process is not beyond His control. So I am praying for miracles to happen so that we can bring our baby girl home. Please pray with us!
