Wonder women

I type this as I sit with my Mom, while she's receiving her 2nd round of chemo. She is definitely wonder woman! I can't believe her attitude! I'm not sure I could be as positive as she is, if I were in her situation. We did have a good cry over the weekend (over losing the hair). She has her new hair (wig) and some really cute bandana scarfs. She looks beautiful and is back to her great attitude. What an example!
My grandmother is doing much better! She's staying in her house for the time being. She informed us "I have to get better, because Rosie might need me." And I wonder where my Mom gets it? Wonder women!! I did let Grandma know she is more than welcome to come stay a few days with us again, if she gets bored.
Although we did not receive any of the grants we'd applied for, God is at work!! We had another garage sale Saturday, it did well. We sold Jacky's tractor. We have someone coming to purchase the donkey and llama tonight. We have another family looking at one of the horses. As I told a friend, right now, everything we have is for sale except our children :-)
The dossier said, it wouldn't be long. Russia has all our paperwork, we should have a July court date!
While talking to the nurse here at the treatment center, we found out she has missionary friends in Moscow. They are in the states now, they usually rent their flat to someone while they are in the states. We will be contacting them to see if they've rented it. This would be a huge savings on the travel cost!!!
Thank you for your continued prayers for our adoption and my Mom!
