Happy Happenings

On Saturday June 25th we had two happy happenings! Tom and I celebrated 6 years of marriage

 AND we got a letter in the mail saying " Bethany Christian Service is pleased to inform you that your profile is available to be seen by birthparents as of June 13,2011."



We thank you for your prayers and ask that you keep them coming. Especially since along with the letter of " you are out there" was also papers of  the legal risk of placement before the Final adoption Decree by the courts are finalized. I must say it was hard to read with words like "parental consent", "termination of rights",ect. But God is faithful and He promises to never leave us nor forsake us. We are in the palm of His hands...we do not know WHAT the future holds but we sure know WHO holds the future and we find peace in that! :)
Thanks again for journeying with us,
Love
The Buhay

tiny update

Hello! Our profile copies and check have arrrived at the agency. The lady who process the fees and then gets all profiles organized and ready to be shown to the birth families had  a death in her family at the beginning of the week. This just means that it could be Monday before everything is 100% set up. Thanks again for the support and prayers!
Jill for the both of us!

Little update and thoughts....

Just wanted you all to know that the picture/" about us:" profile as been mailed along with our FINAL pre adoption fee. ( there of couse will be legal fees, placement fees once we have a child).
We continue to be so grateful for your prayers and ask that you continue as we finished the meeting, paperwork, training stage and are now in the waiting stage. 
We are hoping (of coure.!) for a quick match but that "phone" call could come next month or next year...so we ask you to continue to pray for us that God will give us peace, strength and hope as we continue to seek His will in our lives.
Thanks again for your love and support!
