I'm itchy. It's time for Betty (or possibly, Leah Grace Elizabeth) to be home. Home, already. I'm itchy because it takes far more time than it should, particularly for a sick baby. I'm itchy because Betty was sick with the flu last week and I wasn't there to make sure she is okay. I'm itchy because Uganda is experiencing violence and I want to protect my girl. I'm itchy because DCFS is taking their own sweet time to approve my file. I'm itchy because we have a family vacation in November and I want Betty on the trip. I'm itchy because Betty needs to be on the right cocktail, not just any cocktail. I'm itchy because Seth wants to know where Betty is and "Uganda" doesn't really explain it to him. I'm itchy because it's summer and oh what fun we would have if she were here! I'm itchy because I'm not even fingerprinted or USCIS approved yet. I'm itchy!
`
Lord, we know that you are the beginning and the end and that Your timing is perfect. I pray for Your perfect peace over when Betty comes home. But Lord, I pray You would intervene to bring her home quickly. Speed DCFS approval and USCIS. I pray that You would protect her and kiss her boo-boos until we can do it. I pray that You would suppress her HIV and keep her free from infection. Last, Lord, I pray Betty would know You -- somewhere in the deepness of her soul -- even though she is a little one. Amen!

Have mercy, Lord!

Hehe, considering my blog post about mosquitoes, I would say I'M the ITCHY one.
Sorry, that is all I could think about with every "itchy!"
Praying she comes home soon!! Hugs!
Deb! Praying she comes home soon she is so adorable and I cant wait until you hold her in your arms again!
I know that itchy feeling!
No movement on the house, yet.
Have someone interested in renting, and we might go that route if we can find a trustworthy property manager.
Your daughter is just beautiful.
Praying for "spiritual benadryl" to help you through the "itchy" waiting!
