so the cupcake pops were a huge success! the first batch is completely gone and i have orders for about 50 more. have i mentioned that i love my ladies at work? and let me just say this…God is so good! i love how He is full of surprises. after our meeting on friday, i realized how quickly everything can happen. which naturally led me to start worrying about money and the nursery and formula and diapers and list goes on and on. but in these last two days, with something as simple as cupcake pops, God let me know that He has already taken care of everything. He doesnt want me worrying, just wants me to follow Him…one step at a time. His timing is perfect.
that was sweet surprise number one. the second sweet surprise was that i found out yesterday morning that a couple, who i love so very much, is also adopting. they are already working on the homestudy, but we are practically going through all of this together. i have friends who recently adopted and they are a wonderful support. and now…having someone to walk through all of this with at the same time is such a wonderful gift! again…God is so good!
well, we have our first training session tonight and i’m not quite sure what to expect but i do have several questions for them! the bethany ladies were so wonderful friday and i am excited to be able to visit with them some more.

I am so excited for you and Clay! I didn’t realize that you two had made this decision, but I know that you will be blessed! Adoption is an amazing gift, and I know that you two will be great parents! Keep us posted!!

God is sooo cool. I found out that a very good friend here in Jesup, Ga has a sister who has adopted 2 children through Nashville’s Bethaney’s Agency years ago and as recently as 2 years ago adopted another from Africa! How exciting for you to be experiencing this journey with others in your community through training sessions together! That way you won’t wear Clay out with all a women’s passion for details!
