~ PRAYERS?? ~

just wanted to ask that you all be in prayer for my parents & spike sister/her hubby ~ as most of you know, they're all going through haitian adoptions, adopting 2 sisters ~ my parents are adopting madisyn (14) & ralph/sharel are adopting her younger sister loudnie (6) ~ both girls paperworks in IBESR at the present & awe're sooooo ready for them to get out ~ they'll still have several steps after that, but at least to move 'out' of IBESR would be progress made ~ my parents went in march 28 (3+ months ago) & ralph/sharel went in about a month or so later ~ ralph/sharel did hear that they only need 2 more papers corrected & they can come out, but don't know at this point how long those papers will take ~ dad/mom visited madisyn in may when i took them down with me & ralph/sharel saw loudnie last october, but that was before they decided to adopt, as it wasn't even considered at that point so they weren't daddy/mommy yet & had no reason to believe they ever would be ~ at that time loudnie was just another little girl they loved on while they were there ~ they, like all adoptive parents, are so eager to have this done/overwith, but with a lot of adoptions (especially haitian adoptions), things are never easy ~ please pray with all of us that both these girls paperwork (& tons of other haitian children as well), will begin moving as the offices holding the papers are very slow, almost non-moving & children are sitting/waiting needlessly to be allowed to come 'home' to their parents that want them so badly ~ these 2 girls in particular are raising themselves as their mother's passed & the father's not in the picture at all (abandoned) ~ pray for both of these sets of parents as they're just beside themselves with anticipation ~ they both know that it's all in god's timing & are resting in that, but... when it's your child that's away from you, in another country etc., you want them home NOW! ~ thanks for the prayers & you'll know when things start moving as there'll be a rumble from indiana that'll more than likely shake the entire earth all over the world ~ some will think it's an earthquake, others will be in disbelief, but in the end, you'll find that it's all of us doing the happy dance as the paperwork's finally movin' ~ hang on when the shakin' starts as there's a lot of us eager to hear & we're all ready to dance!! ~ prayin' for you dad/mom/sharel/ralph, etc., etc., etc.!!
