A Day of Celebrations



February 6 is Waitangi Day in New Zealand. It is a day to celebrate New Zealand as a nation. A day to celebrate being a Kiwi (the name New Zealanders call themselves, after the native Kiwi bird not Kiwi fruit).




February 6 was the day my ancestors landed in New Zealand in 1840. It is a day to celebrate their courage and desire to serve God first. They held a church service right on the beach where they landed on their first Sunday in this exotic land called New Zealand.


 
 
 
February 6 is now my most exciting day. A day for our family to celebrate together. Today we found out we have been matched by Lithuania to the sibling group of four we are interested in.


WE HAVE BEEN CHOSEN TO BE THEIR FOREVER FAMILY!!!!


Our local government still needs to approve the proposal so we are not fully there yet. But there are no contrasts to our approved homestudy so that should be straight forward.


We are also still waiting for our New Zealand documents to come through. Nothing can proceed until Lithuania has them.


And this is our 100th posting so we celebrate our blog as well.


 
 
 
Celebrate good times with praises to the King of Kings!
