Selfish....

Soooo... I am guessing that my selfishness has been brought to light this last week. We got an update that stated: "Your paperwork is ready to be resubmitted, however we are waiting to submit everyone's together"............ long pause, deep breath, and cry selfish "why oh why do we have to go all together" tears. Please don't get me wrong, I LOVE each of the families that we have been on this extended journey with, each of them have a special place in my heart... I know that we will forever be friends and have a bond that no one, unless you have been in our shoes, could duplicate. I LOVE each of their children, having wept long hours over each of the names and we prayed for them. I am selfish, and I am working on it and praying for forgiveness as God continues to bring to light what He wants changed in me.

We are now only getting updates on Fridays, which makes for a long week, but I am praying this week will bring tears of joy...

We are at the end of re-doing our dossier, since we have been told that it expired yesterday. So my prayer warrior friends, would you pray with us that we can get our paperwork completed and sent to Ethiopia as quick as possible and that if for some reason Federal MOWA looks at our file prior to us getting the new paperwork to them, that they would pass us even without the updated documents.... since nothing has changed, I am still the same person that I said I was on my birth certificate 2 years ago, which has not changed in 30 years. =/
