Where to Begin

Where to begin? That's the question I sit here and ask myself.  It has been so long since I've last updated this blog and so much has happened since I don't know where to start, so I'll start from the beginning and try to catch you up. 

Since we last left off we have had our first homestudy visit with our social worker and have been trying to get all our paperwork completed.  I have to say that we have definitely been a bit overwhelmed by the amount of paperwork that is needed.  While we knew that it would be a great deal, we just didn't realize how much time and effort it would take until we had started on getting it all together.  But we have persevered and are now about complete with all the paperwork, autobiographies, forms, etc. that is needed for the homestudy. 

We still have two visits left with our social worker before we can complete the homestudy but we are planning on having them completed by the end of the month, knock on wood.  We had originally planned for us to have completed the homestudy by now but I had to be out of town for work for six weeks and that kind of threw a kink in our plans, but that's ok we're back on track now.

God continues to blow our minds with the things that He shows us and it's usually when we least expect it.  I guess that's how He likes to work.  We know beyond a shadow of a doubt we are on the right path God has for our family and even though there may be obstacles in our path we will continue to pray that He will remove them or just give us the strength to get through it.  We can't begin to express our deepest thanks to all who have and are praying for our family and have supported us on this journey we walk. 

Hopefully next time it won't be a couple months before I try to update our progress. 

With much love in Christ,
Nick, Millie, Alex, and Avery
