On Friday we were called with a referral from CCAI of a little boy who has a cleft lip/palate. The special need wasn't an issue with us. We read his file. Talked, prayed, asked many of you to pray, talked some more. Went to church on Sunday and talked about Hannah .

Our application is in a holding pattern with CCAI pending me losing some weight. I have been giong to Curves again on a regular basis and last night I joined Weight Watchers so I can attend with a gal I met in Sunday School. I need to lose some weight so our application can be officially approved to China standards.

So - we agreed that we should say 'no' to this particular little one and get motivated. We let our agency know this morning. I know this little guy's perfect family is waiting for him and that our next child is out there for us. We have always said we wanted 4 children. We are halfway there. And God is always, always faithful!

Oh - and I ate broccoli Saturday night for the first time and....:::::GASP:::::.....I liked it!!!!! See - miracles happen daily! :-)
