This journey has been an emotional one. Emotional with some of the feelings that come with the situation, the financial costs that seem impossible, and some of the sacrifices for a greater cause.
This last week was an emotional one but is really kind of silly when you think about it. We got Krystle's dream car, a bright yellow mustang, last February while we were in the process of looking into options for fertility treatments. We thought we would have a little fun for a year or so before the kids started popping out, but much to our surprise we found out we would not be able to have kids of our own and that our plans had changed. That car was awesome!!! It was fast, obnoxiously loud, and tons of fun to drive. We came to feel it was time to get rid of it and get something a little less expensive to help save for our adoption more and something that has a little more room for a car seat. After a few nights of tears and emotions we put the car up for sale. We prayed we would be able to sell the car quickly and to be able to sell it for enough to help ease the burden of getting another car. Within 24 hours we had someone look at the car and want to immediately go to the bank to complete the purchase. Our prayers were answered VERY quickly.
After selling the mustang and talking about how quickly the sale happened, we've come to the conclusion that for our family when something is right, it happens very quickly. We got married in under 2 month's time, bought our house in very short time, planned and started an adoption in a very short time... Everything that we've felt was right and we've started, it has always moved in the right direction quickly. We are grateful that the Lord is so mindful of us and feel blessed He is helping us in this journey.
PS- We will be getting another mustang...one day.
