I HAVE BEEN TO COURT 100 TIMES BEFORE AND I AIN'T NEVER BEEN NERVOUS.. WELL TODAY IS THE DAY COURT FOR A JUDGE TOO DECIED IF WE CAN ADOPT OR NOT.. IT MAKES IT WORSE BECAUSE WE HAD TO PRACTICE WHAT WE WERE GOING TOO SAY... KINDA REMINDS YOU OF COURT IN WARREN COUNTY...
Well as we GO OUT TO DINNER LAST NIGHT WITH OUR UKRAINE LADY FRIEND AKA.MRS.S WE SOMEHOW GOT TO TALKING ABOUT CARTOONS IMAGINE THAT THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW WE ARE WATChING THIS CARTOON ON YOUTUBE ABOUT THIS DONKEY YEA DONKEY DON'T TURN AWAY NOW I AM GOING SOMEWHERE WITH THIS... THIS DONKEY WAS NAMED ENOCH SHORT AND GRAY WITH BIG EARS KINDA REMINDED YOU OF THAT ON ON DISNEY.. WELL HE WAS LOOKING IN THIS WATER HOLE THAT HAD THE APPEARANCE OF BEING ABOUT SIX FEET IN DIAMETER.. HE WOULD LOOK AT HIS SELF IN THE REFLECTION WALKED TO THE OTHER SIDE AND LOOK WITH HIS REAL DISTANCE LOOK ON HIS FACE,HE WOULD GO INTO THE MIDDLE LOOKING INTO TOO THE WATER.. THERE WAS NO CHANGE IN HOW HE LOOKED NOTHING CHANGED UNTIL HE STEPPED INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE WATER HOLE THERE WAS NO DIFFERENCE.. I AM NOT ASKING YOU TOO GO HALF WAY AROUND THE WORLD TO ADOPT A CHILD THO THAT MAY BE WHAT YOUR SUPOSE TO DO.BUT WHAT IS GOD ASKING YOU TOO DO THAT YOU WON'T RIPPLE THE WATER..WHY WON'T YOU HAVE FAITH LIKE A CHILD THAT GOD IS IN CONTROL...WE ACTUALLY HAVE PUT OUR HEARTS,LIVES,AND MONEY IN THE HANDS OF GOD AND LET HIM LEAD US TOO WHERE WE WERE SUPOSE TO BE WITH WHEN WE WERE SUPOSE TO BE THERE NOT A MINUTE LATER...
AFTER WE WAITED OVER TWO HOURS IN THE HALL FOR OUR JUDGE TO HAVE TIME FOR OUR APPOINTMENT WE GO INTO COURT.. PS."GAGE AND I WERE THE ONLY TWO MEN IN THIS GROUP OF 12 AND MAY I SAY FOR THE RECORD THEESE WOMEN WITH THE PATIANCE OF A FLY BETTER WATCH-OUT CAUSE GOD MAY WORK ON THAT FOR THEM..". WE GO THREW ALL THE GARBLE JUNK OF THE OFFICIAL TALK AND WHEN THE JUDGE WAS ASKING ABBIE AND GAGE ABOUT GOING FAR AWAY AND HAVING THE HARDSHIPS OF A NEW PLACE TO LIVE,NEW SCHOOL,NEW HOME,NEW LANGUAGE,NEW FAMILY THEY STOOD UP JUST AS PROUD OF A HUMAN-BEING COULD EVER BE AND SAID "DA,DA,DA" AS I LOOKED AT THOSE CHILDREN IT HIT ME LIKE A TRAIN LOAD OF BRICK I WAS SHAKING YOU GOT IT CRYING WAS NEXT...YEP CRYING OUT LOUD I DIDN'T CARE... WOW GOD,!!!!! I WAS THINKING....I CANT BELIEVE IT,YOU HAVE USED THESE CHILDREN,TO COME INTO MY LIFE, HELPED ME BE A BETTER PERSON,TOUCHING OUR FAMILY IN WAYS WE CAN'T DESCRIBE. AND WOW!!!!! AGAIN GOD IT JUST GETS GOODER AND GOODER WE HAVE OFFICIAL PERMISSION FROM THE COURT TO BRING OUR TWO NEWEST CHILDREN HOME....
IF WE WOULD OF WORIED ABOUT THE WHAT IF'S IN ALL OF THIS, IF WE HAD NOT WANTED TO MAKE A RIPPLE IN OUR LIVES DOING WHAT GOD HAS CALLED US TO DO THEN WE WOULD HAVE NEVER HAD ALL THIS FUN,TEARS,SWEAT....AND JOY!!!!
AND HAPPINESS!!!!!
