Are we nuts?

Do we know what we are getting ourselves into?  Nope.  Do we know this is what God wants us to do? Yup. Without a doubt.  I have never felt this way about any big decision I have had to make.  Don't get me wrong, I have many questions and concerns but no doubts about going forward.


Questions that are flying around in my head:
- How the heck are we going to afford this? (probably $15,000 to get Andy here) not to mention we will    have to think about college in less than 7 years 
- How do we raise a 11 year old......who doesn't speak English and is coming from another culture.
- How can we make Andy a part of our home and make him understand that he is family now while at the same time allow him to feel like he is still a part of his home in Haiti as well?
- How will Andy and Annabelle get along?  Will Annabelle beat him up?
- Should we or when will we have another biological child?
- How patient are we going to have to be in this whole process?  Andy is just getting older!!


Despite all of these questions I know that Andy is meant to be our son.  I cannot explain to you the confidence that God has given us. We have seen God's involvement in the process so far and I know He will be right by our side as we continue. 


Answers that I have about this journey:
- God is Good and He is in control of this.
- I am learning patience already
- Annabelle is already calling Andy his brother (well sometimes she calls him her sister :)
- CVS gives me some money for adoption!  
- Our family and friends are so supportive


We are excited to skype with Andy within the next few days to ask him to join our family!  We will update soon!
