And we wait!

Exciting news in the Schutt household today.  After the mountains of paperwork and just waiting for things to be processed, we are finally considered to be a waiting family with our adoption agency.  YEA!! 

So, what does that mean?  It means that everything on our end is taken care of (paperwork wise) and now birth familes can start to look at our family as they consider who would be the best family to raise their child.  The wait could be anywhere from a day or two or even up to a year or more, but we know that God already has the timing chosen and will let us know when that is when He is ready! 

We pray.  Since the process has begun, we have started to pray for the birth family and the baby that the Lord would place in our home.  The kids faithfully pray as well and wait with anticipation as we do.

More exciting news happened on Saturday.  We were approved for our first grant!  It is a matching grant through the MICAH fund.  Look for more information on that to come later. 

Thank you for praying for us.
