Wow, we're close!

Well, as of today, we sit at #13 on The List. Four people in front of us are waiting for siblings, so that puts us at #9 on the infant list: 4 people in front of us waiting for girls, and 4 people open to either gender. We never dreamed that we would be in this place this early (if you've been following this journey, how oxymoronic does that sound?!? since we originally thought we'd have her home by now!). But here we sit.

Someone from the agency said they are hopeful for more referrals next week...the last week before the cut-off. To be honest, I didn't think there was any way we'd ever get a referral before the cut-off for court closures. I knew in the back of my mind that if God wanted it to happen, it would. But on the other hand, I didn't think there was any way... Now I stand corrected. There is the possibility...

So we are asking you to pray this week. If it's good to God, we would REALLY like to get a referral before the cut-off, and make it through court before they close. What an amazing move of God that would be! Even though we'd like that to happen, we are still totally comfortable with knowing that God is in control, that He will match us with the baby He has planned for us in the timing He sees best. We find peace in that. So, not our will, but Yours be done, Lord!

Watch the blog...we'll keep you posted.
