I decided to come and here and say that I can't believe the tomorrow was the day for us to bring our son home. But when he logged on the ticker over there on the right said "Today is the Day" my heart sank. Kind of a bummer, I wasn't expecting to see that until I woke up. At this point I am not sure how to put an ending time on that darn ticker now. Today or should I say tomorrow we fly to Florida for 5days. Please say extra prayers that the USCIS will take us as an emergency to do our finger prints. Prayer works, so help bring our boy home.

Don't they say Stress will kill you?
I am not one to worry, my mother taught me from a very young age to give all my worries to the Lord. I am really not sure how one can survive with out that. Now stress..... believe it or not, I didn't learn what the word stress was until I was an adult. Stress is completely different. And I can say that right this minute in my life I am stressed to the limit. So much is going on in my life, and so much of it lies in other peoples hands. A lot of it is up to us to figure out and to lean on Christ to help us through. So I went to the Bible to help me and these verses just did it.
Psalms 18:2-6 The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies. The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid. The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me. In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears.
With my Heavenly Father at my side, "Stress isn't going to kill me"

Court
I talked to the people yesterday hoping that we get to go to court on Monday, so that Dontae would be legally ours here in Jamaica before we left for the States. But no such luck. It was close but no cigar.
We found someone that can come and stay here to take care of Dontae while we are gone getting our finger prints done. The thing is there will be some people staying here that I don't want my son to be around, and I mean at ALL, Those people will be here 3 of the 5 days we are gone, which means Dontae and the sitter will be stuck up in this room going crazy. You see the same people are here this weekend, its bird shooting season here in Jamaica, so the shooters come and stay every weekend for 6 weeks. When they were here last weekend a grown man wanted to hit me because he wasn't getting his way and later on he wanted to hit Mark for telling him to lower his voice and quit using such bad language. Dontae was in Marks arms. (who did start crying). So these cruel selfish people are here now, and Dontae and I are not stepping foot out of this room until they leave on Sunday. But unless Calie flies over here and stays, I don't see any other option then to use this lady. ( I know Calie don't worry I am half kidding) LOL
As of three days ago now Dontae has got another tooth. Yippee!
Please pray for us to have clarification with all this please.

Gods Plan ???
I know God has a plan for us. I know God has had this plan before I was born. So with that said, I need to be faithful and trust in him always. So that is exactly what we are doing. I won't say that we aren't stressed, but worried???? Nope!
Just received an email that states that we can not get an appointment in Orlando to get our fingerprints done until the 7th of September. The thing is we are only there until the 5th. There was a little blurb at the bottom of the email that said, they will take a couple of emergency visits. Please pray ours will be considered an emergency. Whats an emergency to one person maybe not be to another. But being denied because they can't take our fingerprints which take all of 3 minutes seems like an emergency to me. So we will be going to the USCIS building an hour before they open on September 1st. with all our paperwork in hand and pray that they will print us.
Also at this point we also have no one to stay with Dontae while we are gone. Please help us pray that the right person will pop into our lives. Thank you to everyone in advance for all your prayers.

Our Love Story Part 3
So my question to him was "how did you find me"? And do you know what he said? "Oh well I have caller ID"
Fiddle sticks, I said to myself, no one has caller ID it had just came out. He must of gone and got it the first day it came out. So he really didn't have to work to find me at all. If he had, I would of least known he had to of been quite interested to go to that extent to find me right?
So he ended up asking me when we could meet,(mind you he still doesn't have a clue what I look like) He was going to California and the day he got back I was going on vacation, so it was about three weeks until we could actually go on a date. But we talked every day, every single day. He did go get the church directory from his folks to look me up. (He did think I was someone else, who was actually my cousin, LOLOL) so now he knows what I look like, we have made a fantastic friendship on the phone. So our date should be wonderful.
I remember one day someone left me a message on my phone, and it was Mark on his way home from CA. He was just so darling, and excited about meeting me soon. So after my vacation, he made the date night with me. July 19th. He came to my house to pick me up and I made us a tottie. Then off we went to Sarducci's. Which I had never been too. We ate out on the veranda, and I remember like it was yesterday when Mark took his gum out of his mouth and put it in the ashtray when our pizza came. If I wasn't so memorized my him, I probably would of been grossed out. LOL After dinner, he asked me if I wanted to see his house and property. Yes, I know it sounds so foward, but it really wasn't, we had talked a lot during dinner about his house and property, and he was so proud of it. So of course I wanted to see it. Because you know that I knew one day I would be living there too. LOL Its crazy how I knew that but I did. Probably about three hours after we had been at his house and walked the 7 acres, he leaned in for the big kiss, but it was right at the same moment I was getting up to go use the rest room. LOLOLOL I found out later that he felt denied. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL I am not sure why though because when I realized what had happened I put up my pointer finger and said "hold that thought" LOL Anyways the next day church, so he drove me home and said he would see me in the morning. Now do you think I slept a wink. NOPE!!!!!!!
