- Waiting to see if I or Cousin Steph win the PW Weekend (we're taking each other if one of us wins)
- Waiting on Ellie to stop this bad little phase she's going through
- Waiting to stop this whole cry-at-the-crop-of-a-hat phase that I've been going through (I've always been sensitive, but COME ON)
- Waiting for February 6, when I get to celebrate my birthday and meet my fam in StL where we will shop and eat, and I will pass off things that need to go into storage before we move
- Waiting on God to show me how I can most effectively encourage and minister to other young women this semester
- Waiting on answers from graduate schools and law schools
- Waiting to see where we will be in just over six months
- Waiting on answers to long-term prayers for our family
- Waiting on God to give us our first child (I think it's going to be a while)
- Waiting to see where that child will come from (My womb? Someone else's? This week, I wondered about Haiti... we're wide open!)
It's particularly hard to wait when I see so many in need right now. I want to help them right now. I want to grab one of those babies and hold them and rock them and teach them about a mom and dad and a God who love them right now.
I'm trusting in God's sovereignty that now is not our time for babies. Those babies are out there, though. Maybe our babies are out there. So since I can't bring them home with me right now, I'll pray for them fiercely, and I'll wait.
