Hurry up and wait

Andy and I are official!  As of Friday, everything has been tured in and has been approved.  Families can now look at our profile.  We are so excited because this means we are that much closer to bringing home our precious baby!  What a relief.  Your encouraging words, phone calls, texts, emails, and prayers have meant so much to us and please keep them all coming.  I think we will need them now more than ever.  We have no idea how long we will have to wait.  According to Bethany, the average wait time runs from 4 months to 4 years.  The more specific you are, the longer you could wait.  For those of you who don't know already, we are neither gender nor race spcific.  With that decision made, more families will see our profile.  We have prayed and prayed for God to prepare our hearts and minds for what is about to be the next chapter in our lives.  We are extremely excited and cannot wait to see what our future holds. 

Please continue to pray for me and Andy while we wait.  Pray we will continue to fill our days as we always have and not become consumed with wondering when someone will call.  Pray that we continue to enjoy our time alone together as we have no idea when we will become a family of 3!

Praise God we have made it this far!  We are one step closer!
