About Me

My photo
I am a daughter, a wife, and a mommy to 2 amazing boys. I have been married for 15 years to my hubs! I love Jesus with all my being. I appreciate a good cup of strong coffee, chocolate, yellow flowers, and my toes in the sand on a sunny FL. day.

Excitement is building.....

Ever since we finished our home study the reality that we could get a call about our little guy any minute is just over taking me! I can honestly say that to be a mommy is a huge desire of my heart. I just envision him in all aspects of our lives, I simply cannot wait!! His beautiful dark eyes will be looking into mine very soon!

We mailed off our first grant application today. If you are following along with this blog, please pray in faith that favor surrounds us and that the hand of the Lord moves our application to absolutely the right person!!

Our confessions is that in the Behrens household we do not lack anything!! Praise God that during a time where everything is falling down around us, we can stand in perfect peace and know in whom we trust!!

Finally Done!!

As stated in this title we are DONE...with what? Our home study. On Thursday Dave weighed in and met his goal weight for S. Korea and then we headed down to Ft. Myers for our fingerprints. After Dave's weigh in at the Drs. we went and had a fabulous lunch. Dave was definitely hungry after not eating for a couple of weeks. I married a great man!! I can't tell you how exciting it is to be done with all that glorious paperwork.

Now, we maintain our peace, patience, joy, and faith as we press on for all the finances to come in and wait for the beautiful picture of our baby boy. Our social worker should be calling us in the next two weeks to talk about timing.

I am starting to think about a nursery theme. I know it is early still, but I am a planner.

Please continue to stand with us for complete provision for our little guy. Our God is always faithful!!
