At the risk of sounding like a broken record to many of you who either read this blog, get our newsletter updates, or speak to us in person frequently, we would really appreciate your prayers over the next couple of months. We are really getting down to the final days and weeks before a final decision could be made about the twins and everything about foster care is starting to really wear us down emotionally and spiritually.
I struggle the most because my day to day routine involves 3 visits a week with birthmom, multiple phone calls every month from professionals involved in the case, paperwork that has to be filled out for everything the girls do (or so it seems!), worry and fear about losing my family in 2 months, constant crying out to God for help as I struggle to keep my head above water some days.
Shaun struggles because he hates seeing what it all does to me and he hates that he can't fix it. It's a battle that is tough on our marriage.
I don't mean to complain, but I just wanted to be honest about where we are at right now. We feel helpless sometimes but then we remember that prayer is not a helpless thing to do. It is the MOST powerful thing we can do.
