please pray

"Adoption is not for sissies!" I love that saying because man is it ever true. Would you please lift up my dear friend Gwen and her two kiddos waiting for her to return to Uganda to bring them home?

This is her recent post:

WE NEED PRAYER !!! Tomorrow our very last piece of paper needs to be signed before we can get Joseph / Daisy's passports then on to the Visa appointment and then HOME .. There are two other amazing families walking this same road and bringing home their sweet children ... All these children are from Amani and super sweet friends ... We need this person to feel our prayers and release our children ...

When God's people pray then no matter the answer there is peace ... He says to ask and He will give us the desires of our heart ... My heart's desire is the same as the Lord's..."I will not leave you as Orphans !" The name Daisy has been our confirmation of this journey for months ... Only God could have orchestrated a t-shirt I designed w/ a daisy on it to help raise funds for our adoption and then have our daughter be named Daisy in Africa ... This is His small whisper of confirmation to us as we journey ...

Help me life up Joseph, Daisy, Bobby, and Gift !!! Pray God's mighty hand on the PEN tomorrow (before you go to sleep tonight) ... Thank you for journeying with us ...

I can not wait to tell you all about my precious children ... They are a miracle and all we ever dreamed ... Their brothers and sisters are so anxious to have them home and Daisy already has Scott wrapped around her little finger w/ her sweet voice not to mention that Joseph can dance like His daddy (used too)! PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY !!!!
