a bit overwhelmed

Why is applying for grants for our adoption so daunting and overwhelming to me? I wish we just had the money to pay for all of it. After working full-time, making dinner, getting Isa ready for bed, and then sitting down to work on lesson plans and grant applications/paperwork...it feels like we're never gonna get them finished. I know we will but seriously, it's daunting.

    Hi! I have been praying for grace for you in the process. I was wondering, though, are there things you can delegate to others whilst you concentrate on the grant applications?

    For example, are there friends from church who could cook meals for you for a week to give you some extra time?

    Is there someone who could help mark homework for you to help with your school preparation?

    Could one of your mothers come for a week to cook, clean and run errands for you?

    I will be praying for wisdom and for financial resources to bring your daughter home.
