THE JOURNEY TO PINK IS NOT EASY EITHER

WELL, GUESS WHAT? THAT IS RIGHT...WE DO NOT HAVE PINK YET! IN FACT WE WERE NOT EVEN SUBMITTED YET.

I WAS AT THE GROCERY STORE AND OUR COORDINATOR CALLED AND SPOKE WITH GEORGE. SHE TOLD HIM THAT THE EMBASSY IS GIVING OUT NUMBERS. OUR AGENCY HAS AN ATTORNEY THAT HAS A RUNNING MAN WHO GOES TO THE EMBASSY AND PULLS A NUMBER. THE MAN GOES SUPPOSEDLY AT 3-4AM AND PULLS A NUMBER, YET BY THE END OF THE DAY, HIS NUMBER IS NOT CALLED. WE ARE TOLD THAT HE IS BEING HIRED TO SLEEP AT THE EMBASSY SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING IN ORDER FOR US TO BE SUBMITTED FOR PINK. IF INDEED THIS HAPPENS, WE WOULD HAVE PINK BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK AND MOST LIKELY BRING MAYA SOMEWHERE BETWEEN NOVEMBER 9TH-16TH.
ONCE AGAIN WE HAVE BEEN MORE THAN PATIENT.
IT SEEMS TO BE THAT WE HAVE TO GET TO BREAKING POINT BEFORE THINGS CAN GO OUR WAY.
I KNOW GOD THINKS THAT WE ARE STRONG, BUT WE WOULD APPRECIATE IF HE WOULD NOT TRUST US SO MUCH.

WE WANT A BREAK.

WE WANT HER HOME.

SHE HAS SO MUCH LOVE TO COME HOME TO.

KEEP PRAYING....OUR SUPPORTERS WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. THE ALMOST DAILY EMAILS, COMMENTS AND PHONE CALLS HAVE HELPED US SO MUCH!!!!

ON THE UPSIDE, I AM TAKING THOMAS THE TANK ENGINE(aka Bryan Barrettt Lear) TO A HALLOWEEN PARTY THIS AFTERNOON.

We are hoping that our sister-in-law, Amber goes into labor like...TODAY... so that we could go see the baby this weekend. George's Dad is sick in the hospital so we may go down soon, anyhow. The poor man could have his own blog on his medical history. Currently he has a lung infection but it is more complicated than that. We hope he stays strong mentally. His mind over matter gets him discharged time and time again! He will have two new grandchildren to meet in November.

Tuesday we have numerous Halloween festivities to choose from. Bryan went door to door last year and it was cute, but this year he really knows so much about Halloween. His imagination is so awesome.

I will update, hopefully..soon!
