Little Bonnie

Abba, I can't believe that our foster-to-adopt training is over tomorrow. Now begins the push to get all of our documents and applications and all that turned in so that they can do our criminal checks and we can get our fingerprinting done. Then, we have to have fire and health inspections on our house, the cats vaccinations have to be updated, our physicals need to be done, our references have to be checked, and then our home study has to be completed. She said that we could expect a placement as early as March.

We found this little girl online that is already up for adoption. Our hearts keep being drawn back to her and she's not that much younger than Deidra. Her name is Bonnie and she's 4 and her birthday is in April. I'd love to have her here with us by then and I pray that she'll be able to become a part of our family. I pray for healing for her and that we can adopt her. I'll know more once our home study is done and our paperwork is faxed over for her. I'd appreciate prayers though for her healing with the abuse that she's been through and that we'll be adopt this precious little girl.

Her picture is already plastered on my mom's refrigerator and we all think about her a lot. We pray for her every night in Deidra's bedtime prayers and she's already engrained on all of our hearts. She just seems like she'd fit in here so well.
