The Phone Rang!

I'm on a trip out-of state visiting my Grandfather for a week.  Before I left, my husband and I joked, "Wouldn't it be just so *inconvenient* if the adoption agency called while I was out of town...Oh gee, how sad!"  Well, it rang! 

Don't get to excited!  (I keep telling myself that.)  She's looking at us and another family and wants to talk to us on the phone tonight to get a better "feel" for us.  She's expecting a girl in July.  :) :) :) 

So pray for us and for her!!  I'll let you know how it goes!  I have very limited internet access and can only talk my Grandad out of the car once a day to head to the library, so don't worry if you don't hear anything for a while. 

Excitement!!!

Hi Lauren, I've been reading your blogs for the past couple of weeks and I wanted to tell you a) I love it! b) today is a great day for such news because it is the Solemnity of the Birth of John the Baptist and he was definitely a long awaited child. He will surely be interceding for you. Many prayers!

I'll be offering up all the struggles that come with having three sick kiddies in the house--the barfing, the trip to the ER with a son whose temp shot up to 105.6, the endless changes of sweaty clothes and ensuing laundry, the sleepless nights...for God's will in this situation! Come on, God! Do it!
