"Are You Sitting Down?"

I am beyond excited. We received the call today. When the day started out not so good and ended up being wonderful. We received a referral for our baby girl. We felt like we were dreaming my daughter said "Is this for real". This has been such a long journey of ups and downs that it doesn't seem real. She is absolutely beautiful and we have been blessed. I will never forget this day. Now the waiting starts but at least we are waiting on our baby. I will continue to pray for all the others waiting I know how it feels it has been almost 2 years for us. I know it is in Gods timing and we are so forever grateful...

"Silence in the Air"

You know each day just drifts away no new information, can't reach anyone to find out an update the silence in the air is frightening sometimes. I still haven't given up on the idea. I often wonder how many children there are waiting and what will happen to them if the adoptions stop for another period of time. I keep trying to be positive and be very hopeful. Maybe I will have some good information soon. I can only hope. But on a good note I have been enjoying spending time with my daughter watching her swim, and getting brown as a gingersnap she has such beautiful skin. She is growing so fast and cries often when we talk about the changes in the adoption world and the what if's....she still thinks positive and that child like faith is what I need to see me through....
