We received a phone call last evening from our adoption agency. A single question changed everything: What name would you like on the birth certificate?
Whoah. This is actually happening.
If all goes well and as anticipated . . . Elijah John Nettle will arrive in the Nettle home next Tuesday afternoon.
Surreal. Exciting. Fear. Stress. Exuberance. Unbelievable. God. Peace.
Pastor Greg and Julie, we just happened to check your blog this afternoon from our hotel in NY after having returned to the U.S. with our new daughters last evening. :o)
God is truly amazing in how He weaves the hearts of His children with one another – and especially through the miracle of adoption.. We are looking forward to hearing more about your extraordinary journey when we return to RiverTree this weekend.
We have TRULY missed our RiverTree family and services!!!
John & Lucia
God is good….
