Still so happy!

If there is anyone traveling soon and you would be willing to take an item or two to our son PLEASE let us know! I would apprecite it SO much!

Have I mentioned how much I LOVE being on the referral/court process part of the FBI list?! It's still a great feeling! I am SO happy that we've received our referral! Thanks be to God! I knew He would match us with the right child and I really think this is the perfect child for us! I am sure this is written on every ones referral, but when I was re-reading some information I noticed our referral said, "We truly believe you would make a great match for him!". I loved that they put that, regardless of what they write on the other referrals! I hope we don't stay on this list TOO long but it's nice to know: we have a boy!, his pictures are oh! so cute, background info., estimated age, etc. I can't wait to see updated pictures and get a court date! I love walking through the house and seeing his pictures and his smile, no matter which room I am in. I don't want to wait TOO long for this sweet boy to be in my arms, but it's a face I could wait a lifetime for if I HAD to! He is precious!

Oh, and I have got to work on his room some more and added some finishing touches (see below for wall sayings).

Hey David and Chelsea! I got one of those update emails from OC and it mentioned your referral and gave a link to your blog. So here I am, reading about the most exciting part of your journey thus far! Congratulations! I bet getting that call is like seeing those two pink lines appear... and you think "I'm going to be a parent! This is for reals!" Good luck!

Hello to you and congratulations!!! We do not know you two but just brought our little girl home from Guatemala in August. We saw your news in the OC email update. We got our referral Nov 2, 2007 when Haley Sofia was two months old. The feeling is totally abundant joy! You guys are in our prayers!
