I want to begin this blog by giving glory to our Creator...His design is perfect. This is a fiddle head fern bud ready to unfold...they were all over on both sides of a trail we hiked during one of our weekly nature walks."All of the parts of the frond of a fern bud are tightly folded spirally within the bud and every fold of every leaflet is also folded in a spiral. But the first glance at one of these little wooly spirals gives us but small conception of its marvelous enfolding," (Handbook of Nature Study, p. 698)."...so intricate is the action of their multitudinous spirals, that to watch them unfolding impresses one as would a miracle," (HNS, p. 699).
Can't you just read this and feel that it describes all life?! It is a privilege for me to know Reece's Rainbow ministry, the precious "miracles" that give this ministry purpose, and to share with you my family's "unfolding" as we walk by faith. Thank you for sharing our walk...may you be richly blessed.

Dossier en Route!!!


May I say WOOHOO!!! The kids and I picked up the rest of our Apostilled paperwork this afternoon downtown, and then went to the UPS store. I photocopied the remaining Apostille cover sheets and organized the dossier, with a bright yellow cover sheet to Yulia. The dossier should be there by Monday. Then Yulia will review, let us know of any questions or concerns, translate, and submit to the SDA in Ukraine who will then give us our travel date.

More tears of joy today...I feel relieved, but kept looking at that package over and over thinking I was forgetting something. Although we are awaiting our travel date, this is a huge accomplishment in relatively 3.5 months! We committed to Morgan on May 20. I feel like celebrating! Today is my birthday....what a wonderful gift...!!!

Prayers: that our dossier would arrive in Yulia's hands safely, and for continued peace in mind, spirit and heart for all of us as we await more news.
