Wednesday, March 27, 2013. April : Here we come! Yard Sales, Home Study, Listing our House: April, Here We Come! Just for an adoption update; on March 23rd we heard from Taiwan Xi En. So many people's next question to me is."what is the timeline? My answer is, "I SO WISH I KNEW! But that isn't how God works most of the time is it? So for us, we don't know what the timeline is for our family. But praise God, He has this all "rigged"! In the mean time, we are listing our house on the market(tomorrow)!
