So on my bad waiting day, I was crying out to God, just wondering if this baby was every REALLY going to happen, and why it was taking so, so, SO long, why He didn't wait until our baby was ready before He told us to do this, and so on.
OK really, I was pouting. I want what I want, RIGHT NOW! Oh, so grown up, right?
Then my husband, who didn't even know about my pout-a-thon, called and told me to go outside and look at the sky. He knows I am my father's child, and love a good tornado cloud, and assumed that's what I'd see. I went out onto the porch, and saw the most beautiful double rainbow. It was bright and clear, and compete, end to end. It was also exactly what I needed that afternoon.
God keeps his promises!

Been thinking about you and your family as you go through this long process. I know it will be totally worth the wait! So glad God reminded you of that - some days can be just so hard!
Beautiful reminder that He heard you. Thanks for sharing you feelings, too!
Incredible! I thought you already had adopted. Praying the little one God is going to place in your home.
And, remember last week's Day 4 study...His name is Avi...our Father. : )
Praying!!!!
God does keep His promises! I'm glad you got to have a bit of an encouragement.
(but as someone who has adopted multiple times, I also know how hard the wait can be and how discouraging some days are) - hang in there. God has a plan for your family and when you are all together finally, you will begin to understand the timing of everything.
