More Girl Referrals:)

We received another update today, two more girls!! What's really extra good is they waited 16 months(not 2 years) and the girls are infants(both under 2 months old). They are working with 2 more orphanages. I get so excited when we get news like this. Everyday is a day closer to Abby. "Dreams are extemely important.

Encouraging words

I have a book full of encourgaing quotes said by famous people. I look at it from time to time or when It feels like our dream is far away and may never come true. I thought I would post them ( I'll try for atleast once a week). Everyone can use a little encouragment.

To answer your question

We were told to plan on a 2 year wait but only God knows. We are on the list for a healthy girl up to 3 years old so it depends on what the people in front of us are looking for. Many couples who have no children are looking for only infants and will take either sex, which means if a 3 yr old becomes available, we would ge the referral however some people will take an older child so it really is unknown how long it will be. After we get our referral, it is about 5 months until you travel, 10 days in Vietnam and then we are a forever family.

Praise The Lord!!

We just got another update from CHI and they received 2 more girl referrals this week. They have placed 67 children so far this year, 33 more have been matched and they are hoping to have 80 adoptions completed by the end of the year!!! Good News two weeks in a row-thank you God for the blessings I already have and those yet to come! Keep those baby girl referrals coming :)

Some Good News

We got some good news today in our CHI Vietnam update today,they got five referrals today and 3 were girls. That many girls at one time is rare. Maybe it will not end up being the two year wait we were told. I just have to hold on the what Brandon says, "God's time is perfect time". I actually had a really great dream last night about Abby. We were with her in Vietnam playing in a park, it was wonderful,very real. Then I was awoken by Brandon, asking me to put ear drops in his ear, GOOD MORNING!!. Anyway, that email made my day and gave me hope:)
