Waiting for August

Some friends of ours wanted to add to their family. So they prayed, and they felt God telling them to "wait for August".

 Waiting happened. Things they didn't expect had to be worked through, and there were moments when it felt that August was a really long way away, and a lot of work and pain. But, through trust, and hope, and WAITING, August arrived.

 And he is so beautiful.

I watched him and two of his siblings the other day and so enjoyed having a baby around. 

His big sister thinks he is her baby. 

Cole is one of Canaan's best friends. 

(I don't know where Canaan's shirt was... Boys!) 

When August's Mommy came to get him, she stayed to talk awhile. 

I caught these pictures of her giving him kisses, and then him returning the favor.

August was worth the wait. 

God's timing is always worth the wait. 

What are you waiting for? 

Wait with anticipation, and faith, and most of all with joy.
