This story is just one of many untold. Democracy isn’t the answer, but I am grateful for my freedoms.
When are they coming to their new home?
That’s the burning question. I’m usually asked it once or twice a day. I usually ask it to myself about twice an hour. This is the key piece of information that my plans for the coming year will center around. The answer has managed to elude me, but I think I’m as close as I’ve been to having one.
One trip or two?
That is the second question that needs an answer. As to the first, my Congolese lawyer believes that Asher’s case will be finished by the end of March, and Phoebe’s by the end of May. Do I wait and get them both in May, or go sooner to get Asher, recognizing that time has a way of getting away from us, and Phoebe’s case could take much longer, as Asher’s has? Please pray with me for clear direction. When things do start happening, I won’t have much time to pull it all together.
In the meantime, their rooms are taking shape and I am getting excited!
That’s the news so far. I hope to have some preliminary medical reports on both of them this week.
Here’s a sneak peek at Phoebe’s room. I think it has a really dreamy feel. I hope she’ll like it!
Best of all, they were Jaymars.
When you owned a pair, you just knew. YOU JUST DID. For more hot bell-bottom action, click for goodness.
This is such a disturbing read.
Read it anyway. I want to bring my children home.
I confess my sin of wastefulness.
From what Congolese insiders seem to be saying, the news is only reporting the tip of the iceberg of what is actually happening to suppress opposition voters.
I don’t know what the coming days will bring for Congo, but I do know that the people deserve better. The worst of our election drama in the U.S. (and it is pretty verbally ugly for the most part) doesn’t compare.
I want to bring my children home safely and soon. Congo Supreme Court makes official offical election announcement 12/17. Doubt that much will happen to progress my case any further before then.
Keep praying!

Friends in DRC are requesting daily prayer on their behalf.
Nothing is happening at the moment in terms of progress on the adoption front. The whole country is at a standstill, bracing for the worst. It’s hard to be far away and powerless.
Pretty erupting volcanoes….
Don’t look so fantastic when you have two future children living in the city just below.
How do you know you are an expectant parent? I think I know.
Please pray for peaceful elections ongoing in DRC today and for peace and safety following the results. The situation following elections could greatly effect the timing of my adoptions. Thanks!
After weekend clashes between supporters of rival parties and security forces firing on crowds, Congolese began voting on Monday.
