LITTLE SISTER!!!!!!

Well, today we got THE call -- the call that has taken 7 months to get... WE GOT OUR REFFERAL!

We know almost nothing else. All we know is that she is 6 months old and now waiting for us in the orphanage. If all goes smoothly, we could be traveling to get her by the end of November. We will post more details as we are able. We really don't know much more than we did yesterday, but the one thing we do know is overwhelming -- that there is a certain little six month girl that now has a family that didn't the day before. And we are that family.

Praise God for answering our sometimes impatient prayers. And thank you for all your prayers. We covet them even more now that there is a little girl we are actually praying for.

We are so excited! What a precious blessing for our entire family! I just can't wait to see her picture. Praying for her will take on a whole new dimension now that we know she's really ours. Mom
