While we sleep... or not sleep... Day 236

Last night was not a good night to sleep, but actually was a good night to pray. I have some major kidney stones right now... major... and was in too much pain to sleep... so most of the night I prayed.

Ethiopia starts their day right as we are headed to bed each night... each night I think... "While I am sleeping will our world change? Will our cases make progress? Will someone in Ethiopia look at our files and realize we have been waiting 7 months 23 days to go back and pick up our kids?"

Last night there was suppose to be a meeting to discuss our case, this morning we are having a hard time confirming that meeting happened. Not that I am counting, but did you know it has been 236 days since we have seen our kids?


Would you all pray with us that if the meeting did not happen last night while we prayed and waited, that it would happen tonight? Would you pray that our case would be given the paperwork it needs and we can be submitted for a Court Decree?

****On a side note, we just went to my good friend Wendi's little sweetness's birthday party on Monday evening where I met a lovely couple I had never met before. We were talking about the adoption and she asked me the name of my blog,,, and do you know what? I could not remember it?! LOL! I never have been  super into tracking my blog posts and stats... but her comments got me interested a little... so I peaked... I am so blessed by the number of people who view my blog daily and are following us on this journey.

If I don't know you personally, would you leave me a comment? I would love to follow your blog as well!

  1. Hi Brandi! I guess I should introduce myself :) My name is Shelly and my kiddos are both in Noah's class (Lauren and Jake). I have seen you a few times at SMILES a while back, and more recently at the AVCS parent meetings at dinner/auction, but I've never introduced myself or husband Justin. And to be honest, I'm not sure how I found out about your blog, but I did and I have been occasionally checking it whenever Noah mentions "a baby Gracie" at school;) Anyway, it's nice to 'meet' you!
