HOPEFULLY HAPPENED!

I was reading through our blog the other day, just reliving what the past almost 18 months have been like during our adoption process.  I came across a post from 7-13-15 entitled "Hopefully Next Summer".  It had photos of the girls and Jonah playing at the beach, and then talked about hopefully next summer little Benjamin would playing at the beach with us. 

The other day I took Lydia and the boys to the beach.  As I looked over the photos I took that day, I realized HOPEFULLY HAD HAPPENED!  Here I was at the beach with Jonah and his new brother Benjamin.  Something we have been praying about and hoping for and now it happened.

God answers our prayers in many ways- sometimes yes, sometimes no, and sometimes wait.

Here was a prayer that was finally answered yes- HOPEFULLY HAPPENED!  Thank you Lord.
