3 Months

So, today marks three months since we have been waiting. I know many people are saying, "Big Deal" well, it is a big deal because we could get a referral anytime between now and July. Hopefully, the time frame does not get longer. I am excited that we are now in the "referral could come at anytime"zone!! I hope it comes sooner than later.

In other news.....I woke up this morning and I knew I was going to get some news, good news. I just had that feeling, I was not sure what it would be or where it would come from but I just knew. So, I am sitting at work getting some things done for my project and I have been checking my email frequently. Well, I saw an email from another adoptive parent, he has been a wonderful email friend. I got to finally meet him last month and he has been there this whole time cheering me on and sharing his experience with his China adoption. He had helped me with my decision of which agency to use for our China adoption. I have known this man for years now. Anyway, I saw an email from him and I knew they were in the process again. I just knew this was an email I could not wait to open until later. I was right, I opened it and it was the good news I knew would come today. He got his referral and I was just ecstatic for him and his family. What a wonderful way to start the new year. The funny part was they had requested a girl but was also open to a boy, this whole time, they just naturally expected a referral for a girl but God stepped in and had another plan for them. Isn't it just awesome that God decided that this little boy needed a family and it was his family that the little boy needed. I just love stories like that!! I knew this was going to be a year of unexpected surprises!!! To my wonderful friend and his family congrats, your boy is just gorgeous and you are all truly blessed to be brought together!!

What a beautiful day for wonderful news, can't wait to see what tomorrow brings!!
