WE GOT THE CALL!!

We are so excited to annouce that got THE call we've been waiting for!! We've been matched with a birthmom who is due in November!! We got the initial call on Monday that Miss A had picked our profile but they wanted to do a conference call before sending us the contracts. We had that call set up for Tuesday but she never did call in. At that point we weren't sure what was going to happen so we decided to be patient & see what happened. Well, today I got to talk with her very briefly & things are moving forward. We hope to take the time we've been given to get to know her a little better & we just are so excited to see what God has in store with Miss A!

We will be very vague with any information at this point but we are going to share a little suprise with you! For the last few weeks, I felt God tugging at my heart to open ourselves up more than what we were willing at first. Our original plan was to only be open to 1 gender(boy) since that would work best with our bedrooms. Well, we had seen our agency listing that they had a situation for an unknown gender. I had asked Brian about it but he was a little reluctant. I asked him if I could ask for her information & then see what happens. After a week, Brian said to send her our profile & she picked us!! So we have no idea what gender this child is but we are just as excited as we were before!! I just want to say that I admire my husband so much with being willing to do this. Not that I "got my way" but because he took the time to sit back & look at the bigger picture of why we set out on this journey in the first place. He is allowing God to make the decisions of what's best not only for us but what's best for this child!! I will forever respect the wonderful heart that he has! We know without a doubt that we will love this little boy or little girl no differently because of who he or she is!!

Please continue to pray for us as we make preparations for this baby & to continue to talk with Miss A during the remainder of her pregnancy. We also know that many things can change quickly & that it may end up being a painful thing to go through but we also know that everything is in God's hands & we give it all to Him!
