I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him.---1 Samuel 1:27

DRUM ROLL PLEASE

YES, we received our referral. She is the most beautiful little girl. Yes, girl! They asked us if we were interested in a girl, and of course we were. She is 15 months old. We are very excited as well as freaking out now that our paperwork is in a mess. We meet with CIS on Thur. We will see what they say about our expired I600A. I can't believe that happened. I have been on top of everything from the get go. I had no idea we were expiring. So, learn from us and check all of your dates!!!!!!!!!! We thought by getting our fingerprints again that extended it. NOT the case. Please pray for us on Thursday at 8:10am Eastern time if you can. We will post pictures when we are allowed. I don't know the rules on that.

Thank you for keeping us in your prayers. This is definetly the most stressful time in our lives.
