Zack and I are privileged to live in a good neighborhood with some really great neighbors. Over the past several years we've become close friends with one family in particular...We met Mike & Tiffany back in 2001 right after they moved into our neighborhood. At the time their daughter, Megan, was about 9 months old. Since then we've spent lots of time together: on vacation, at the lake, many nights at Johnny's Pizza, and just hanging out.
They are amazing friends, and they have two amazing kiddos. Megan and Jon are great kids, and so much fun to be around! They are pictured here, along with Adie's friend Zoe. They are very generous... just last week, they brought over a scooter & trike for our boy. He's not even here yet, and he already has friends who are so kind to him!
We want to say a big THANK YOU to Megan & Jon for their sweet gifts. We can't wait until the day when the 3 of them can get out in the cul-de-sac and ride their scooters and bikes together!!
Adoption Stuff...
Today is Day 11 of our 20 [business] day wait. The SDA is supposed to take 20 business days to review each dossier before approving and assigning an appointment date. Sometimes it takes longer, so we're not trying to set any expectations. But we are getting closer. So please keep those prayers coming!!

Is it already day 11 for you? Cool, it means you are half way there. Hopefully they won't keep you in the suspense longer that 20 days. We are on day 2 so far :) I think the timing for both of us is very good: the tickets are much less expensive in the fall, there are no holidays in this time frame, and hopefully the passport issue will be resolved by then.
Cool Bike! Hopefully he won't have a brother who writes an "S" on it... LOL
I found the waiting to go pretty quick after it was in the hands of the SDA, and sure enough 30 days after it was submitted our facilitator informed us we had an appointment date. So I would say that hopefully by the 16th you will know when you are traveling. We will be in Odessa from mid September to Mid October dealing with 2 orphanages, #4 and #9. Will keep our eyes open for a young boy for you ;) Lord Bless!
For those of you who don't know about the "S" Josh is referring to, that would be Superman. Zack thought they were one and the same. Of course writing on the bike was better than going through the church with a marker writing, " Superman was here" Zack. If you find that hard to believe, it's still there after all these years. By the way, I wonder where that kids' parents were??!!!hhmmm
