Passed with flying colors...YAHOO

As some of you might have heard, today we finally had our inspection that has been talked about for a long time but finally came to be today. So we headed to town bright and early this morning to go pick this gentleman up at the INFA(sort of like children services) building to come out for the inspection. Once arriving here at Casa he proceeded with his inspection.......checking in the toliets, in the trashcans, in the refridge, and under the rugs and the such for cleaniness. After checking all of those things he said all was wonderful but he made a few suggestions for changes to improve the facility. So really that is all that was required of him but then he proceeded to sit down with us and talk step by step the process of everything in getting kiddos and running a childrens home. He was a HUGE help! He has worked here with INFA for 15 plus years so he had lots of experience and lots of advice to offer. We were more than apprecative for the extra like 4 hours he took to talk to us and explain the ins and outs of a childrens home. He says now that he has done his inspection that there are still a few more things with papers that need to be finished. So we will continue to wait. I was thinking I am going to know what it is like for the waiting process of having a child, it will soon be 9 months that we have been here. We have already waited 7 months and before this is all said and done it might be 9 months. But Gods timing is always perfect! I must keep reminding myself of this.
But anyways thank you all for your continually prayers and the prayers offered for this inspection. It is such a relief to know we passed with flyin colors and are another step closer to providing a home for some kiddo sleeping on the street tonight or maybe some kiddo who has been without food for days. I thank you Lord once again for this privilage.....may you continue to use me to and for your glory!!! May I be your dau. who brings a smile to your heart.
