Woo Hoo we got our immigration approval! now hopefully today ,praying today, Carrol will get Pedro's passport. I have just felt God's blessings surround me this whole day and I am just overwelming grateful for his goodness.
I miss my boys so much, I am thankful for the opportunity Carrol is having to spend time with Pedro at the ranch but my house is just not the same without them so I am praying Lord will you please allow me one Valentine wish and that would be to bring my sweethearts home ASAP!
I believe this to be my first Valentines without Carrol in about 20 years!! WOW that makes me fill old.

Specific Prayer Request
Well I arrived safely at home and so ready to see my kids. I think they were happy to see me to but I will say it was very weird leaving without Carrol. That was a weird feeling and made it hard to leave. He text me a picture of the veiw there though to rub it in.
So for my prayer request... Carrol is staying waiting on the passport to be released which should take 7-10 days and we weren't able to apply for that until last Friday which I thought we would have had that done on Tuesday of last week and that it would have been ready to be picked up early this coming week. So would you please pray for God speed on this passport and that we want have any issues come up with that preventing that from being done quick.
Also I am still waiting on our 1800 immigration to be approved, so would you please pray this will be approved in the next few days.
Once these 2 things are in Carrol's hands will should know a definate of when they will get to come home.
Also please pray for Carrol and his time spent down there, we know God's directs everything and that it is no mistake that Carrol has to spend this extra time there we just pray for him to be open for what ever God brings his way that he will be available.

We have Pedro's birth certificate!
This has been such a awesome trip of course! We did have to spend everyday doing business though which I didn't think we would. I tought one full day would be it and we would have the rest to play but o well.. tommorrow we have a free day finally. The celebration last night for pedro's adoption was amazing. It is so awesome to see the missionary Rick at work in what he has such a special gift. We have enjoyed him and sister Janet so much and are forever thankful for all that they have meant to pedro and instilled in him. that were such a amazing influence and have shown him so much love that of course Pedro has had some sad moments knowing that this part of his life is about to come to an end. he is very content thought and is definatly happy to be part of our family and is ready to come home to his brother and sisters and to meet all of his other relatives and friends back waiting for him. Adopting a older child is a little more difficult and it makes a momma's heart hurt knowing that he is gonna hurt but to see the delight in his eyes that he now does have a family of his own is overwelming. i love him with all my heart and believe me you can love a older child just as much. When God ordains it you can tell it! I could just eat his face off and I know all momma's that love there babies as I do know what I mean.
Now on a sad note... my Corie lost her dog zippy today. my heart is broke not to be with her today while she is so sad. so would you please say a little pray for her.
and Corie momma loves you so much and am so sorry for your loss.

A wonderful trip!
We are here with our Son! We are having a wonderful trip. We have our visa's renewed. We are working on getting Pedro's birthcertificate and passport Tomorrow. We are also planning to have a ceremony for Pedro Tomorrow from the Ranch, kindof a going away ceremony so that will be really special. I just am in awe that it is finally over and Pedro is about coming home.
