SapphireStitch Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Please allow me to introduce Natalie Sarah Fischer... http://picasaweb.google.com/jfischer1013/NatalieSarah#5426094778748252082 Man makes plans and God laughs. Sometimes we wish we could figure out everything God had planned but sometimes I am so glad that we can't because His plans are so much better than we could imagine!: She is beautiful! What a tremendous blessing, and what a testimony of how God works in His time and not ours. I'll be praying for a smooth time of adjusting to the newborn routine, and for the paperwork and legal proceedings to go smoothly as well!

lovemywhirlygirls Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 (edited) OK, I'm bawling my eyes out! Welcome home Natalie!!!! Woo Hoo! I just made my husband sit and let me tell him all of the details to catch him up. Then I read (ok, I tried to read) your post out loud and I cried and HE cried and we laughed and cried some more. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I love it when God surprises us. I love it when he makes it clear HE is in charge and that He is trustworthy. I am beyond thrilled for you guys! Keep the photos coming. We're all invested with you and want the payoff of that precious little one's face! What an encouraging reminder to me in my own faith that God does indeed care intimately about the longings and desires of our hearts. Now go love on that baby. Please give her a sweet little welcome home kiss from one of her many cyber aunties! :party: Edited January 13, 2010 by lovemywhirlygirls Can't spell when excited.

God is good, all the time; and all the time, GOD IS GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please allow me to introduce Natalie Sarah Fischer... http://picasaweb.google.com/jfischer1013/NatalieSarah#5426094778748252082 Man makes plans and God laughs. Sometimes we wish we could figure out everything God had planned but sometimes I am so glad that we can't because His plans are so much better than we could imagine! If you've kept up with our adoption story you know that we had a chance at adopting a baby girl right after Christmas which fell through two days later. We were devastated. But on Monday night the orphanage called. The birthmom has decided to let us adopt the baby after all and we drove 5 hours to Kuala Lumpur yesterday to pick her up!!!! She is tiny (6lbs) but beautiful and healthy. We decided on Natalie Sarah for her name (I still wanted Noelle but I was outvoted!). Last night was our first night with her and she woke up every 3 hours on the nose, ate, went right back to sleep. I had forgotten how tiny newborns are! The birthmom is a 15yo girl and we have no details on the father. It all happened quite quickly. We received a phone call from the orphanage late Monday night and they asked us to pick her up by noon on Tuesday. We called our friends, Peter and Ailee, since we knew Peter was from KL and may be able to help us navigate that crazy town. They brought us a baby car seat and then instead of giving us directions, Peter actually volunteered to drive with us to KL and guide us through the trip! We are so grateful. Then we called other friends, Larry and Debbie, to see if they could watch our boys for the day. Not only did they agree to it, Larry cooked up this idea to contact the Dalat staff and ask for help for us and our complete lack of baby stuff! When we got in last night we were surprised with a truckload of baby items! We are absolutely humbled and amazed by the blessings God has poured out on our family. He grants us the blessing of a beautiful baby girl and He sends us to Dalat where a group of people live, work and love together in ways we have never experienced before. We are so grateful at the generosity of our colleagues that it is difficult to find words to express it. And I thank you for prayers as well. We are overwhelmed by it all. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
