He said that we would learn more tomorrow morning about Lizzie's six years and then would meet her tomorrow afternoon. He encouraged us to keep her busy and not worry if she is a little sad. He said again that her foster mother "likes her very much." He is obviously a little concerned about this, but we are so thankful that she is loved. We are all excited and feel a peace about being here in Hungary. The people we have met are very kind. The country is beautiful. The weather is great. We need to keep praying about the weather for this next week as we travel back and forth to visit Lizzie as George said that they do not clear the roads.
The time difference is 7 hours, so hopefully about 5 a.m. (your time) Monday, we will meet our new daughter and sister. We love all of you and appreciate the prayers!
Have a blessed Sunday!
So thankful t hear from you! We serve a mighty God! Praying without ceasing for tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! We feel the prayers. I know tomorrow will be a special day, but this is by far the scariest thing I have ever done!!!
ReplyDeleteAlso - we just learned that Grandmother - Ralph's mother- passed away Saturday evening. We know she is at peace, but still difficult not to be there with Ralph and Linda and all the family. Please let Christy know this for me. Funeral Monday afternoon in Montgomery.
Keep blogging! The students and I are "mapping" your travels. They are just as excited as I am! They love the turtle and we are now learning lots of neat science skills! When I wake up and go to school, you will have met Lizzie - what a great experience! Thanks for letting us be a part of your "family!"
ReplyDeletePraying for things to go well....excited about following along!!
ReplyDeleteCounting the hours until we hear news of your first meeting with Lizzie!! Hoping for pics of your temporary home soon? Maddie walking...not always in a straight line, but making progress...don't we all have those days?!! Love you all!
ReplyDeleteYou must know how much I love ya because I am not good with all of this blog stuff! I am so sorry about Mr. Ralph's mom.
ReplyDeleteWE have been praying for this day for so long and I am so excited for you. I will most likely be up at 5 with one of those sweet babies so I will pray for you then. God is fulfilling a promise all because you OBEYED HIM...HE is so cool and all of you are pretty cool too! Glad to know that everything is going well and it sounds like a sweet place. Love to Ellie and John Reese...
