Case Closed

That is what she said. Our social worker - CASE CLOSED.
Our adoption case is closed.
We will be moved to the finished files.

Yesterday we went to meet with our social worker to complete our final required report for Joe's adoption. We have been doing this, reports, updates, meetings with our sweet social worker for 4 years now.
What a wonderful 4 years.
All 4 years filled with emotional roller coaster rides, but wrapped up by the promise of God.

For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
2 corninthians 1:20


My heart pounded as she said those words. Closed? Really?
Well, ok, then.
I felt sad. Like the promising time was behind us, like there was no more good times to come.
But then I realized the promising times are really just beginning.
A family brought together by adoption, but not defined by adoption.
Just a daddy, mama, and 2 sweet brothers...waiting to see what God has in store.

Thanks be to God.
