Tomorrow!! (¡Mañana!!)

   Tomorrow, several men and women will sit in an office in Peru and look at our family's file...they'll look at our family culture, our income, the specs on our home, our employment and our statement of who we are...and try to decide if we are a good match for the little 3 year-old Peruvian girl we have requested to adopt into our family.
   We've looked at this little girl's file and the 3 recent black and white photos of her and have tried to figure out by psych reports and medical reports and height and weight charts who she really is...silly really to think you could get to know a human being that way.  
   We just know that we would be so privileged and delighted if God would let us be her family...we've imagined her in every corner of our lives for a long time now.
  Thank you friends who have prayed and will be praying tomorrow.  We have been told we won't know the results until Wednesday...we have a complete peace tonight that God will chose what is best for this little one.  
   We don't know what tomorrow holds but we do know Who holds tomorrow.

                                            *************************************

   Mañana, en una oficina en el Peru, varios hombres y mujeres revisaran el archivo de nuestra familia...miraran la cultura de nuestra familia, nuestro ingreso, los detalles de nuestra casa, nuestro empleo y nuestra carta de presentación...e intentaran decidir si seriamos o no una buena familia para la chiquita peruana de 3 años que hemos solicitado adoptar a nuestra familia. 
   Hemos revisado el expediente de esta chiquita y las 3 fotos recientes en blanco y negro y hemos intentado averiguar a traves de reportes psicológicos y medicos y sus tablas de crecimiento quien es ella de verdad...gracioso realmente pensar que podrías conocer de esa forma a otro ser humano.
   Solo sabemos que nos sentiríamos tan privilegiados y contentos que Dios nos permitiera ser su familia...la hemos imaginado en cada rincón de nuestras vidas ya un buen tiempo.
   Gracias a nuestros amigos que han orado y estarán orando mañana.  Nos han dicho que no sabremos nada de los resultados hasta el miércoles...tenemos una paz muy grande esta noche que Dios escogerá lo mejor para esta chiquita.
   No sabemos que traerá el dia de mañana pero si sabemos Quien lo tiene entre manos.
