As most of you know the adoption of Noah has been one of waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting, and for me many times of "Lord, I don't get it, what is going on?" If I knew all of the issues that had risen were for a purpose it would be easier, but I never would get any answers just a simple, "Trust Me." So trusting we have, in hopes that at some point it would all make more sense.
Well on Sunday January 21st, the Lord made it clear to us one possible reason for the waiting. He revealed to us through a series of events and prayer times that Lourdesmia and Suterlande were to be our girls. Yes you heard right! We have decided, no I should say we have agreed, the Lord decided, to adopt Lourdesmia and Suterlande the girls I posted about a few weeks ago in my Have I mentioned I love this girl post. We are in a whirlwind of planifications and have swiftly began to work on changing some of our paperwork to bring our girls home. God had a plan and it may seem like a crazy plan but to us it's a great plan. Our God is awesome!!!
So first I would like to introduce you, to Lourdesmia Grace Cundiff, AKA Mia.
Next, I would like to introduce you to Suterlande Hope Cundiff, AKA Hope.
On April 16th I will arrive at Three Angels and will be greeted by my Noah, Mia and Hope and I can't wait to see how I will manage. I will be out numbered but overjoyed!

When my mom was on the phone with you yesterday, it took my awhile to figure out what was going on because I was trying my hardest not to listen but when I did have screaming for joy I do have to say some tears filled my eyes. I cannot wait to see Mia and her reaction to what the lord has brought into her life.
Praise God!

i like the new name for the blog!
WOW!! How excited you must be. It is so amazing how God is always at work in our lives gently but firmly leading us. Listening to His calling is not always easy and can be scary, but what a blessing it is when we hear and obey Him.
CONGRATS!!!
Thanks everyone! You are all so great! We appreciate all of your comments and we are so happy you are rejoicing with us.
We continue to be amazed at what God is doing. We are also thankful for the people that are in our lives now because of our adoptions. I see eight people on this comment page that I didn't know this time last year. We have so many dear friends now that have come about because the Lord led us to Haiti. He's sooooooo amazing!!
Again, thank you all!!!
