We recently received a call to tell us that we were chosen by a birth mom!!! Baby Girl is due May 7th!
Yes, that is correct. We have a MATCH! We were about 5 1/2 months into the estimated 6-12 month wait period...so though it seems like we've been in this for a long time, it actually happened pretty quickly. Next week will mark one year since we begun the adoption process. What a year!!!
We recently finished putting together our Adoption Puzzle. The project didn't work out exactly as we had envisioned but maybe even better! Anyone who has either donated money, given items for our garage sales, donated pop cans, attended our dinners, bought burp cloths, etc....has their name on a puzzle piece. It was a really awesome way to look back at God's provision over this past year. Once we finish writing names we will put the puzzle in our double sided frame and hang it in our little one's room!
A big thank you to everyone who has been a part of this process. Your generosity, encouraging words, and support have been greatly appreciated!
