Our God is so big, so strong and so Mighty!

    The past few nights Kai has gone to bed and stayed awake singing this song "My God is so big, so strong and so mighty, there's nothing my God cannot do!"  I love his innocence, because this song popped in my head this morning after reading our update!


  When I woke up today I had an email saying that this birthmother had chosen to place her baby with a family member.  I surprisingly was not sad at all!  The whole time we have been waiting I have been in constant prayer that she would make the best choice for her and her unborn baby, and if that choice was not us I would be at peace.  Well God knows what he is doing (big surprise I know) and I woke up and read my message and had an overwhelming amount of Peace.  I was not sad for us, I was not heartbroken, I was ok!

    Thankfully, I know that my God has our Zoie already chosen and that his timing is perfect. 

So friends and family I reiterate to you

 " Our GOD is so BIG, so STRONG and so MIGHTY, there is NOTHING my GOD cannot do!"


I hope each of you have a very Merry Christmas and enjoy the time with your families!


Love,

Our first time being presented

Well it has happened!  This week we were presented to a birthmother through a private lawyer in south GA.  I promised Nick I wouldn't get too excited, but it has happened.  We (ok I) have wanted to make sure that you as our family and friends were in the loop during this whole process, even if it was the not so fun part!  So, because of that I have been telling everyone that we might here today whether or not the birthmother chooses us. 

 I ask for your prayers that if this baby girl is our Zoie that it will happen, and if this is not our girl I (Tarrah) will be able to process the idea of not being chosen.  This is the reality of domestic adoption.  You get shown to birthmothers and some do not choose you.  I know that God has our daughter chosen and I am ok with that. 

I will update you all on the outcome as soon as we know something, it may be a yes, it may be a no!

Love to all!!!!
