My Ebenezer

Guess I haven’t been very diligent about updating lately. Life has been busy.

The quick update is that Speedy will start his new school in January and I think his new teacher is going to be wonderful. He got to meet her today and when we left I said, “she sure seems nice.” His response was, “super-duper”.

The closer Christmas gets the more excited I get. It’s funny how perspectives change after you have kids – I’m no longer excited about the gifts under the tree, at least not my gifts. I CAN NOT WAIT to see Speedy’s face when he sees what Santa brings him. And the other gifts, too. I know Princess will be ecstatic when she sees her “princess dress and jewelry” – I just can’t wait to see their faces.

Back in 2005, Christmas, we were disappointed that we weren’t celebrating with little ones. We knew it would happen within the year, but we were so hoping for a family by Christmas. I can only imagine that God was sitting in heaven, waiting eagerly for February to arrive because He knew that’s when our little gifts would arrive. I know He must have anticipated the looks on our faces and the smiles in our hearts when our dreams became reality. God wants good things for us. He has good things for us. We just have to wait on Him and trust His perfect timing.
