BIG NEWS!!! It's a ........

BOY!!!!!

Yesterday afternoon I got a phone call from our adoption agency.  I was surprised and thought that I must have filled out some paperwork incorrectly. But, the lady on the other end of the line said "I am calling today to let you know we have a match for your family".  I was in shock and really excited.   She said "He is a little boy, 2 years old and so cute".  She went on to share that at birth he had a small hole in his heart and latest medical records show that it is gone and he is doing great!  So, she sent me his file and we have completely fallen in love with him. 

Today consisted of us talking with our family and friends, and praying.  We took his medical records to our Doctor and she gave us the green light and says he looks great.  Then we had a family meeting to confirm that everyone agreed he was ours.  The Lord gave us the scripture, Acts 15:28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us'.."

This afternoon, July 31st our family made the decision to bring this little boy home!!  I am not able to release his picture or info online yet.  Next week we will post his picture and share his name.  

Thank you for your prayers and support!  We can't believe how fast this has all come together.  The Lord's hand has really been in every detail.  We should have him home by January 2015 unless the Lord decides he needs to come home sooner.  

Can't wait to share more!!
