Seems like some of YOU keep asking this! :) Well, there are SEVERAL reasons:
1. The adjustment to being with my children 24/7 - along with the transitional stuff that is taking an ETERNITY.... keeps me from having much "quiet" time to form my thoughts into blog posts! But the girls and I have made HUGE strides in the last couple of weeks towards finding a semblance of structure and "at homeness".
2. My emotions and thoughts are so muddied. It is hard to even describe what I have been feeling, observing, and analyzing about myself and this move. When I find the words and cohesive thoughts to share these things - I will. I am getting there!
I hope to start looking at my blog in "blog bytes"...small snippets of thoughts and stories, instead of the comprehensive posts I once could share on our adoption blog. It is taking a shift in my brain to do that!
So hopefully there will be at least little snippets every few days - instead of one per month! Thanks so much to all of our friends and family for keeping up with us and for your prayer and support!
PRAYER NEEDS FOR DECEMBER:
1. Please continue to pray for Macy and Mia. Pray that there will be a "settling" that takes place in our home. Pray that God will give us wisdom as parents to guide them into Godliness.
2. Please pray for Macy that she will have a strong and positive desire to learn as we continue home-schooling.
3. Please pray for Brad and I to find God's direction for our lives. When this program ends in August - we still have no idea what God is leading us towards. It would be REALLY wonderful for God to begin to open up doors and shine a light on our path! :)
4. Please pray for our marriage...that in the midst of chaos and uncertainty - that we will cultivate a beautiful marriage that reflects God's love in all we do.
5. Please pray for God's provision. December is traditionally a crunch month for everyone...please pray that God will provide all of our needs.
6. Pray for friendship.
7. Pray specifically for us emotionally. Some days we feel lost. Some days are good. All days we know we are in the center of God's will....but there are still emotions, frustrations, and disappointments to deal with. Pray for grace. God is teaching us so much through this whole experience.
Thank you...and much love. :) (fh)

Glenda, you and your precious family are in my prayers.
I can't begin to imagine what it has been like to be uprooted and moved across the country...just with my family and belongings.
Throw us a crumb every now and them...we will be satisfied with whatever you are able to send us when you can.
We love you guys!
Love,
Jennifer

Glad to see the new posts. I've checked a few times for updates and hadn't seen any and been wondering how things were going. Sounds like things are starting to settle in. Praying for you all.
