Movin' right along

So, imagine my surprise when I'm sitting at my desk yesterday and open up my email to find that the first draft of our homestudy is finished. That definitely sent me into panic/frantic/omg what am I gonna do mode. It just made me so excited that they got that done so quickly. Stuart and I both looked over the draft and have faxed in our changes this morning. I am so hoping that things continue to move smoothly for us. Another super exciting thing that I found out is that the state of Indiana is one of the few states in the country that does not charge for state certification. Finally, we are getting something for free!!! Also, instead of sending it to the Secretary of State for certification, we can drop it off and pick it up the next business day.
Amazingly enough, I am calm as can be today. Last night, the most important lesson I've had in a while, hit me square in the face. God's timing is perfect. I can't control how fast or slow or how many ups and downs we're going to have from here on out. He is completely in control. Therefore, I sit here today with a peaceful, non frantic heart. I am so thankful for that. Especially since I was 30 minutes late for work today because I apparently only paused at a stop sign and Mr. Policeman was sitting there watching me. Whatever, no ticket, just a warning. Seriously, do these people not know that I've got enough going on in my life?
