I am ALMOST approved! Everything that went to Peru in November has been approved on the first time through! That is a miracle! There was one document, that the Peruvian government has added as a requirement since my paperwork went down there.... so it is on its way down there and when it gets there, translated and legalized, everything should get the final approval! That is when the Peruvian Socialworker and my Social worker (Allison, who is absolutely wonderful) will begin looking for a child.
Thank you for your prayers and please continue to pray! Please pray that God will prepare our hearts for one another and that He will bring about the necessary attachment that we need! Please pray for the Social workers to have wisdom, guidance and discernment in choosing the child for me! And, PLEASE pray that May 1st will be on God's travel schedule! :-) He has His own time and it is perfect, but May 1st would be, in my mind, such a great time for me to go. Thank you for these prayers.
To the side, you can see that I am working on getting her room ready. There are some pictures of her room.... Ladybugs are the theme!
Blessings,

Becca's Blessing is the Beautiful Blessing of a Chosen Daughter from Peru.
On the Journey With My Chosen One!
I am sure you might wonder why I call her chosen rather than adopted.... well, adopted is just her physical condition, CHOSEN is what we both are to be a family together! God is so rich in His Blessings, and He has chosen each of us from before the time we were knit in our mother's womb to be a FOREVER family! How BIG is that? How BIG is our God!?! Thank you for following our journey and for praying for us as we wait and continue to grow in the love of God! -- Blessings!

About Me
- Rebecca
- On Mother's Day of 2006 as I sat in church watching a baby dedication, a woman there was dedicating her adopted daughter from another country. I clearly heard God say to me, "You can do that!" Well, my first thought was "Lord, are you joking?!?" Of course, He was NOT! I then spent the next two years praying about and researching adoption. Of all the things I have always been sure of in my life.... being a Mom was definitely one of them! After much prayer and consideration I submitted my application for adoption on my 35th Birthday, August 31, 2008. And, YES, this is the "CRAZIEST" thing I have ever done in my life! But, you only get to live this life one time, so BE a little CRAZY sometimes!
