This morning I called Denise at
There's Always Hope to confirm that she received our passports and visa applications. She said she had just finished processing our package. I explained to her that I just wanted to make sure everything was OK, given the expedited nature of our adoption. She said everything looked fine. I mentioned to her that I decided to request the 24 hr visa processing after I saw that she was closed on the 5th, 6th and 7th last week (I was overnighting the package on the 4th). I didn't want to lose all that time. (Of course, when I mailed it, I didn't know our immigration paperwork was going to be stuck in Texas for two weeks no matter what. ) Anyway, we talked it over and we agreed that we would have plenty of time for the four day processing, so she will send back our $90 check - the amount for the expedited processing.

While I was on the phone with her, CP called and wanted me to call him back. I called and he said that my dad had found somebody to haul off our piano. You see, we have an antique player piano that is WAY out of tune. It was my great aunts and has been a nice piece of furniture (you don't want to hear the music!) for many years now. However, with our growing family, we needed more space in the house and this seemed like a perfect item to get rid of. We have asked around to see if we could sell it and discovered there is NO market for these items. So, we are actually having to pay someone to haul it off for us.
Guess how much it will cost for them to haul off our piano?????
$85
Ain't God GOOD!!!!

It's great to see God's provision for your beautiful family. I wish that we lived closer to you, as I would have loved to take that piano off your hands. When my great grandmother passed, her old player piano (totally in great shape, she lovingly cared for it as she was a piano fan) was tossed in the trash before I even knew about it. )-: I would have loved to have that piece because of the history of it and because it belonged to her. (Her home used to be a diner during WWII and the piano was often tinkered around with by servicemen who were coming home or getting ready to head out.) Oh well. I am so glad that everything is working out in your situation and I can't wait to see your boys home with you. Thanks for sharing.
Praise God from Whom all blessings flow! Since the day Adeye posted about Kevin, our family has been praying constantly for him and for his soon-to-be-found family. It's so great to know the name of that family just as God has known that you would be his family. Thank you for your obedience! I will love watching this miracle unfold. ~ Michelle
I LOVE God's provisions and how He shows up for us in every detail!! :)
