We recently had our Senior Recognition service this past Sunday. It was very hard to see our three graduates in their caps and gowns, and I'm not their parents! Two of the three were just freshmen when we started in the ministry at WBC. It has been wonderful to watch them grow and mature into young adults. They are great kids and we pray diligently that they will continue to grow in their relationships with the Lord.
Bank, our exchange student, will be leaving for home on June 2. If you've been watching the news, things back in Thailand haven't been so fantastic as of late. He says his family is ok, which makes me feel better. I just can't believe how fast the school year has flown by! He has been such a joy to have here. I was really worried about who we would get, would they make friends, would they take a bath, would they be any trouble, would they like us, and all those crazy parent thoughts! He has really been a blessing, and we will miss him terribly.
The only thing that really hasn't moved on is our adoption. I'm not sure why God has brought us to such a standstill, but I know he has a reason for it. We've had all of our paperwork done since February, and have been waiting on a "match" since then. I've almost become very just frustrated with looking at profiles and even allowing myself to think "this could be it". I'm beginning to lose my joy in it. That is when I'm gonna have to be on guard from attacks. I want God's will to be done. I just need endurance and wisdom to see it!
