I'm feeling very out of sorts and a little stressed lately - not a feeling an organized, type-a person such as myself enjoys! There just seems to be so much going on right now that I feel like as soon as I check everything off one to-do list, I have another one waiting to be done. My mind feels like it's on over-drive with a million things zooming around my brain, and I just feel overwhelmed.
On top of that, my heart is just aching to hold our son. I just want the paperwork and government processing to be done. Anyone who says adoption is easy obviously didn't eat their wheaties this morning. I do know this though - he is going to be every bit worth it and more. Nothing of great worth is every easily obtained. Can't wait to see your sweet face little man ...
What I've concluded is I am craving peace and am in desperate need of some quiet time with the Lord. I need to just get away from the noise and rest in the One who can fill me up and bring peace that passes all understanding to the chaos. This photo I snapped before leaving my parent's Sunday morning is the perfect representation of what peace looks like to me.

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything.
Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.
Then you will experience God’s peace,
which exceeds anything we can understand.
His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you
live in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7
