Is it really the end of August already!?!

I have been asking myself this question for days now. Where has the summer gone!? We have had a fun and busy summer doing the things that we love while enjoying the company of family and friends, old and new!

The boys have started soccer and they couldn't be happier being on the pitch again. They have been looking forward to this for a long time and we are excited to watch them play a sport they both love so much.

School will be starting soon. September 4th to be exact. I am so not ready. I'm not sure why, but my momma heart is having a little bit more trouble with this year starting. Maybe it's because I have only 1 more year before a high schooler? Maybe it's because I thought we would have another one starting this year with us? Maybe it's because I have 2 homeschooling and 1 leaving to go to public school? Or maybe I just love being carefree with the kiddos all summer long :) Whatever the reason, Jesus and I have been talking a little bit more then usual, and I guess thats not a bad thing, is it... If you are a teacher, a momma, or a student, know that I have been praying for you. I hope we are ALL praying for our kiddos, our teachers, and our fellow mommas out there as a new school year begins!

With August coming in full force brought us our adoption appeal as well!!  We were able to get all of the requirements done and sent in a few weeks ago. We are still waiting on any word on how that will turn out. We remain hopeful but guarded at the same time. Please pray with us that we hear something soon and that God will be glorified, no matter what the outcome. The tears still come and go, but God has given us all amazing peace and for that we are thankful.

We hope all of you are doing well and that you are finding peace and comfort in our Lord Jesus no matter what you are going through. We are praying for you. We love you! ~The Schulz Family
