I was at praise team practice at church this morning when for some reason I had about 8 text messages come through to my phone all at the same time. One of the names that ran across the screen was Ms. Pat, our adoption agency director. I quickly grabbed my phone to see what she was texting about.
And it was good stuff y'all!

I went straight to my e-mail and found FIVE pictures!
And to make it even better is the smile on her beautiful little face! Melt my heart!!!
Britt was in a deacon's meeting. So I stood outside the door where I could see him through the window and pointed to my phone! He got the hint quick and told me to come on in. Very exciting morning! It has done our hearts good to hear from the orphanage in this way.

I wish I could share the pictures on here with you. But I am going to be printing out prayer cards to give out to people to put somewhere to remind you to pray for her and for us to get her home soon!! Our church family at First Baptist Eclectic, we will have them at church soon. For others, if you would like one just e-mail your address to me at roll_eagle@yahoo.com and I will mail one to you. (And yes, we are a house divided...I am the smart one ;) Roll Tide!)
Our 14th wedding anniversary was on Wednesday, August 10. We celebrated by signing the MER (medical examination report) and CSR (child study report) to officially match us with our daughter!!
It's amazing how much we love this little person that we have never met that lives on the other side of the world! Her brothers are just as ready to get her home as we are!
I am also amazed how God continues to teach me daily, showing me how living and active His word really is. Three days in a row (Friday, Saturday, and today) He has put a rainbow in my path...
My devotional on Friday was about Daniel being thrown into the lions' den. I posted a quote from it on Facebook..."Remember, what is out of your control exists under the careful control of the One who is all-knowing, all-wise, all-good." And the scripture that really stuck with me was, "He delivers and rescues; He works signs and wonders in Heaven and on earth." Daniel 6:27. Then that afternoon the rainbows started...we serve an amazing God!
Continue to pray that everything will go quickly and smoothly so we can get our baby girl home!
