We had a lot of fun at the White Fence Farm yesterday. Katrina got her face & nails painted and the ballon man made her a crown. :) We got to pet a miniature cow and feed a very greedy goat. Daddy & one of the boys very nearly won the water ballon toss (They really should have, but oh, well...life isn't fair). And for lunch we had all-American fried chicken, mashed potatoes with gravy, corn fritters, and coleslaw. (I know, maybe not the healthiest food, but oh, so yummy!)
But the best part was getting to meet Waiting Children, their foster moms and their caseworkers. It was sad to see so many children without Mommys and Daddys, but it was encouraging to see so many people interested in caring for these children. They are real kids, not just pictures with a list of problems on a website.
We went into the event wanting to meet a specific sibling group (ages 7, 5 and 3) and we had the opportunity to play with, or talk to, all of them. The little girl is precious. Yes, they are very cute, and yes, Daddy most definitely will have to guard his heart. :)
Their "team"(caseworker, therapists, guardian ad lidam, CASA worker, etc.) is meeting next week to make some decisions, so hopefully we'll hear some time this month whether or not we're "it".
Our prayer is that we would be joyful in whatever the outcome will be and patient in waiting for that outcome.
Resting In Him,
The Bobbs
