Sill slow

Everything is really s.l.o.w!!

I am not getting discouraged, but I feel it trying to creep on me hard.

The coffee sales started off OK when I 1st posted about it and now it has come to a complete stop. We have sold a total of 17 bags. I can never stop saying how thankful we are to have found this organization because of how it benefits the children in Ethiopia as well as our domestic adoption and I can never stop being thankful for the sales we have made. Humbled.
I am not a pushy person when it comes to this type of thing, and don't know what else to do to promote Just Love Coffee. I have told everyone I know to tell everyone they know. That's as far as I can go comfortably. Nothing much else I can do anyway ;)

As for the adoption process itself. Still, nothing. Just waiting. I wish I had more of an update for you.

In other news. I had not heard from they agency we are Foster Parents through for a few months. That is odd to say the least don't you think!? I called CYS upset we were treated that way and asked them if they knew anything about our agency. They did. They told me THEY CLOSED!!!!!!
They shut down due to lack of funds and never told us!!! WHAT!??!!?!??!?!?!?!
CYS apologized profusely and could only assume we were not told because we had no foster children at the time that we fell through the cracks. CYS also told me that because we are in the process of adopting, it is a conflict of interest and we can't do fostering either. Soo here we are with a lonely and BORED 4 year old, a home with an empty bedroom waiting for a child, and hearts with room for another child..and we can't.

Hoping for some progress to share with you soon, but for now, we wait.
Don't worry, we are good at it. Rachel's adoption took 2.5 years. This couple of months stuff is nothin! ;)
Remind me of that later.........

  1. God loves the waiting process because we learn so much about faith during the times we wait. So many of His heroes of faith waited and during the waiting times is when they became heros. I know that the Lord is growing you into a faith hero as well.
    Hey, how can I get a coffee widget for my blog to support you. And when do you want to do a Blessings Unlimited fund raiser for your adoption?
    Much love to you...
