I thought I would post but really nothing has been going on big but work, school, and work again. I have been fighting myself to get in the Word. Have any of you ever tried so hard to stay commited but your wordly duties always seem to try and stop you. Well that is me right now. I am too busy for my own good. My school (teaching) keeps me at work way to late and then I am trying to survive this Master's class that I am in on Friday nights from 5-8. That should be illegal to have class on Friday nights. (Just a side note) I am going to start doing better tonight. I have promised myself and God that I was going to get into my word and study my S.S. lesson tonight before my eyes shut for the night.
Thoughts: As I lay awake some nights I picture Lennon and what she looks like, smells like and what her cry sounds like. I know that sounds crazy but I love the smell of a baby and the way they cuddle to you at night. I can't wait to hold her and love on her. I know only in God's time will she be with us but I still can't seem to shake those motherly feelings of being a little jealous that someone else is doing that right now with her. I pray they are holding her tight, singing sweet lullabys to her, and reading stories as she falls asleep. This time is so precious in an infants life and God has given me peace that her foster parents are going to do just that "love" her. What a sense of peace knowing God is behind this adoption and looking down on us watching our every move, emotion, and thought. He is just saying "Be Still In My Time, Trust in Me." I hope all of you have a wonderful weekend.
Prayer Request: Our revival is coming up this week. Please pray for brokeness in me and the others that attend so God can move our hearts. Pray for Bro. Jim Wilson and that God's message will be delivered through him. And pray for the lost that their hearts will be soften to hear the message and move when God tugs on their hearts.
Much Love, rhea anne

Hey Rhea Anne, just getting caught up with ya...I totally hear ya on not getting in the Word enough - I am so guilty of that myself lately. (and the only one who suffers is ME!)
Anyway,
I'm praying for Baby Lennon - so great that I can call her by her name now.
P.S.
Loved the pics of "studly" Jiles - he IS a doll!
Talk to you soon!
your blog really brought back a lot of memories for me. you are going to be a wonderful mother to Lennon just like you are to Jiles. love,julie
Lennon is so lucky to have your family as hers she doesn't even know how LUCKY she is. You are going to make a great mother to her. Praying for you...
such a sweet post about your daughter....We moved a lot this week in our agency..I think I might be in the "teens" now...very exciting...When can you view the waiting children for the first time??kj
Hey Rhea Anne! I will praying for you, to have peace in your heart to know that God is giving you Lennon because He didn't want anyone else to have her! From the video it looks like Jiles is a "baller". I wish I could be around yall more. Its good that Joe Dan showed me the blogs, now I can keep up with my family!
I just found your blog through another blog. We have a son we adopted from Korea and we are waiting (any day now) to be matched with our second child. Congratulations on your journey! Can't wait to see that you have been matched with your sweet baby girl!!
Once you find out how "big" your baby is going to be, if you'll find the "perfect" dress, I'll put her name or initials on it. I LOVE white on white... Wasn't tonight the bomb? By the way, you've had your guestbook for HOW many days, and you already have just as many sign ins as me!! I'm thinking that since you, Shanan, Kristi and Sara are my main "audience", I should just write to yall!! loveya, Jerri
