We made it to July...

Well, I haven't been very good at posting since there has been nothing much to say. We are still waiting, referrals are still very slowly coming in, and we are still seemingly a long way from knowing who our next child will be!

Bethany did receive another COP list last week with 15 children on it. We are praying about a little 8year old boy on the list with a "slight limp." His need seems so minor but the medical report about his condition is very confusing. The condition the doctors have attributed his limp to doesn't fit the other information on his report. Therefore, we are praying for wisdom as to whether or not we should request this adorable boy. We are realistic about our insurance and ability to care for a need that may be ongoing and require a lot of medical care. If he does have the condition they say, it could be serious. If he doesn't, it may be "just a limp" that could be corrected with therapy. Or it could be anywhere in between the two on the medical needs spectrum. Such confusion! We pray God will make it clear to us what we should do. We want what He wants for us and nothing less!

I do have to say that each time one of these lists come out we are blessed with the attitude of compassion and love that our girls show. All three of them want us to request him! What wonderful hearts they have.

Referrals should be coming out this week. Last months referrals covered only 6 days, so we are praying for a larger batch this time around. We'll see...
