Full Steam Ahead

Looks like we are about less than two weeks away from sending our dossier in to our agency! 

Some of you heard about the Sequoia having a malfunction in our driveway...

We can all imagine what could have happened if I had been on the highway.  The lower ball joint totally broke.  God is so merciful to us, and let us land not quite halfway in the driveway.  And to top it off a friend told us we should check to see if it had a recall.  Lo, and behold it did!  What are the chances?  So Toyota took the brunt of the repairs.  I did have to make two trips to Anchorage to have the body work done.  We did have the upper ball joints replaced because it's almost time anyhow, and the mechanic had it all tore apart and that cost was on Toyota. 

The day before we went to go pick up the car, my computer got a virus that wiped it out completely!  Ack!  William was able to restore it back to a couple days prior, but there were some things missing.  More importantly, pictures!  My amazing brother in law was able to find the hidden files.  Thank you God! 

We are feeling the fire.  God is absolutely winning this battle though! 

It looks as though since we are open to adopting an older child (above 3), we should not have to wait for a referral.  Pretty much as soon as we turn in the dossier, there are some boys who are available. 
Would you please pray that God will give us discernment?  It's not an easy thing choosing a child!  We ask that God would make it very clear whom he wants to be a Wolverton. 

Also, the daunting feeling of needing around $8,000 for a single child and $18,000 for a sibling set.  That will be due when we accept our referral which could happen as soon as 2 weeks!

 People have been so gracious and answered the call to give selflessly!  We cannot thank you enough. 

We do not know where or how the money needed will show up.  What we do know is that God will provide. 

Please continue to pray that this next step goes smoothly, that all of our paperwork looks acceptable, and that we could fully trust in Him.

As always, I love to hear what your thinking!  :)
