Ruby Grace is Ours

Finally!

The news we had been fasting, praying, pleading

 to hear

Ruby Grace

is 

ours.

I skyped a few minutes ago with Dw and all the kids
{and S too}

and little Miss Ruby even smiled for them.

She was cooing

and amazingly 

I was able to translate:

"I can't wait till I'm home with all of you.

I love you all!

I can tell we're gonna' have a blast!

Yippee Jesus!"

Can you believe she knows already how to say "Yippee Jesus!"?

We are weary beyond weary, but there is no doubt, 

this Mom of Many will not stop thanking 
the King of Kings and Lord of Lords!  

Yippee Jesus!

*celebrate with us*

  6. YIPPEE JESUS!!
    How He hears you and has cared for you. And cared for your family in the US in your absence. I've been busy and haven't been able to keep up (thanks for tweeting the posts. That is such a valuable reminder) with all that is going on. I hope you'll be able to share freely once you get home.
    Will continue to pray for health and travel mercies for you and cannot wait to see the reunion with your family. What an amazing journey.
    Godspeed to you!

Tonight when I pause to pray for you at 7 Colorado time. I will thank God with a victory dance Ruby Grace is coming home!!! Janet

    ReplyDelete
  126. Oh, Linny, I don't even remember how I came across your blog, but once I stumbled upon it, I had to read it. I've been working night shifts at my second job and when I wasn't tracking flights, I was reading your archives. Such an inspiration! I had been mulling over something regarding involving money and an orphan and after reading your blog, I knew I had to go through with it.

    Thank the Lord for moving the mountains and making Ruby yours. She and Sarah Jane will be in my prayers tonight.

    ReplyDelete
  127. I JUMPED when I read this! Oh happy day! Thank you, Father, for this answer to our many prayers! I think of y'all and Ruby Grace every day. I will go to sleep rejoicing and resting in God that she is YOURS!
    Goosebumps, tears, relief...and happiness spilling over for y'all.
    God bless you!

    ReplyDelete
  128. Congratulations! God is good. Praying for that home/family reunion for all of you and Sarah Jane soon.

    ReplyDelete
  129. Congratulations!

    God is able!He is so awsome.
    Just a little bit,.....yes, we will see more, and more, and more.
    Because he loves us. When our hearts are aching for these little ones, we can not imagine how his heart hurts.
    He will move mountains , he is risen.

    So, please keep us even in your prayers on next tuesday.
    We will have our visit from a social worker. We know them very well, because we´re fostering.
    But they won´t like it that they will loose a Fosterfamily because of an international adoption.
    So, this will be our first big mountain on our road. But God is bigger!


    Ruby looks sooo good.
    She is a beauty. It´s so amazing!
    Wish you a good and blessed weekend.

    love Barbara

  158. Absolutely beautiful little doll baby. I wish I could meet you when you come home to CO and love on her. She needs some Auntie Martha hugs and kisses.

  166. HALLELUJAH! Sharing in your joy and praying you all home with special requests for Emma to regain health, Ruby to travel well, and that you'll have strength for this last leg of the journey.

    You have been auspiciously silent on the subject of Sarah Jane and i surmise you have very good reasons for this. We'll pray that she will also be part of the entourage when you all head home from Uganda.
