Today after VBS we did most of the errands we had to do before we go and get Lily! Chinese money, rent, last things to bring etc... At this point in our journey we are stunned at what the Lord has accomplished and brought us through. The icing on the cake is that our friends who moved from Korea about a year ago will be adopting a little girl as well and will be there with us. What a joy to be on this journey together!
The amount of overwhelming love and support has encouraged our hearts and has brought us unspeakable joy. I have said this before but it really has taken a community ( the Body of Christ) to bring Lily Hope Home! All the funds, prayers, encouragement and hugs that all of you have given will be in forever written on our hearts and shared with Lily! She will know how she is loved already, and prayed for throughout the world before folks even met her.
I know this journey is just beginning and we can't even comprehend what is about to happen in our hearts, our home and in our lives. We know the Lord has something special planned for Lily as He has made it so clear that she is our daughter well before things were finalized. We HOPED in Christ for our family and its amazing to see that the Lord is faithful to His calling so many years ago when he spoke to our hearts.
Heres one last photo before Lily officially meets her mama and baba and officially becomes a Haas. WOOHOO!!!!!!! Let the sleepless nights and love begin.
While we are gone I will write to a friend who will be posting for me since there are restrictions on what we can access and are not sure which VPN works.
