So what do these images have in common?

 
 Is this about global warming?

 Oh maybe it's about couponing?

 Or is it secret code words for a secret club meeting that you are all invited to?

 So I have to tell you this really really cool story!!!!

My husband and I were swimming.... last week before the cooler weather of Florida....

something came up in conversation................

it is one of my favorite topics..............

one that to be honest I didn't know if I should bring up.....................

you know one of those.... is my husband going to think I am off the charts???

Well, you may have guessed what all these pictures stand for and what they have in common.............









or you may not have.............















But.....................

















he he he he he........
















OK I will tell you...................


















Ummmm........






















OK no more messing with you all........

11- will be the number of people in our family soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Paper will be flying as we will soon become officially paper pregnant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have had permanent smiles on our faces since we have agreed and prayed about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES- people will think we are NUTS :)

There will be lots of waiting involved (have I mentioned before I do NOT like waiting???)

Oh, and even though I have lost track of how many times we have already been fingerprinted by it seems every possible source we will be doing it all over again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Details:  We are going to be doing a domestic adoption!!!!  We want to specifically do a special needs adoption..God has laid down syndrome on our hearts, but we are praying and listening to the Lord for guidance.

So this conversation is one I have brought up a few times since Joanna came to us.  BUT really to be honest it was just general as we hadn't moved yet, or we hadn't found a job for Jason yet, or we didn't have the money to buy the house yet...........and we did say we wanted to be here for 6 months before jumping into any really big things.........but I thought I would approach the subject of adoption with Jason anyway.  Just because it is my favorite thing to talk about - besides Jesus, but as we all know the 2 topics are intertwined!!!!

Well, after saying the words sooo.....when do you think we should do our next adoption?  I also waited to see his face.  Go and read the last post to know where I am going with this in detail.  I was waiting for his leadership in this important decision and his go ahead if you like.  Then I felt compelled to tell him that I had really had a tugging on my heart to do a special needs adoption such as down syndrome.

What happened next was ALL GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jason told me that he too had heard God nudging him in this direction.  (did you read that!!!)  OH YEAH!!!
And specifically towards down syndrome.  Are you serious??  YES!!!
AND Jason also asked God to give him reassurance that he had heard God right.  In fact he said he said if I am hearing you- would you have Dawn talk to me about it without me prompting her.  He had this conversation with God less than 24 hours before I brought the subject up to him.  :) 

He, he ,he- now God TOTALLY ROCKS and I LOVE IT when HE just does things because- well HELLO HE is GOD!!!

After we talked about it for a bit we prayed about it.  And agreed that we would let God show us specifics.  Well, the next night who was on the radio talking about her testimony?  Carolyn Twietmeyer.  Now if you don't know who this is- their family has done a lot to promote the TRUTH about hiv adoptions.  AND their latest adoption was a baby with down syndrome!!!!  OK GOD WE ARE LISTENING!!!!!!!!!!!!  WE HEAR YOU!!!!!!!!

So here we go on another rollercoaster ride!  Should be some crazy fun- come join us and see what amazing things God will do!!!!!!!   Hope you all have a BLESSED WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
