Today's News

The word from the Rumor queen is that March 6Th is the cut off date. If that's the case, we are in. Hopefully our call will come soon. We are keeping everything crossed that we can, fingers, legs, toes, arms, you get me. If not then we will just wait patiently till next month. I always thought that since we had a date that was at the beginning of the month we would be in or out. Just in the middle, not the cutoff. But it just never goes the way I think it will. I have to say that today is Greg, my brothers Birthday, and he and I had a conversation about this year is going to be a great year for his family and ours. He and Angel are having a little girl in July,and we are due anytime now. As much heartache that Greg and Angel and our family have had wouldn't it be so nice to have two little miracles in the same year join our family. We are definitely due some joy.

Nothing yet

We haven't heard anything yet on the latest rumors. I have heard that things are expected to pick up soon. That really doesn't deal with us too much since we are almost there, but I hope the number of families that recieve babies picks up soon. I know how I have felt not having her home and I pray that the couples that are behind us don't have to wait this long. I'm not sure but I think that our group, in March 2006 has waited longer than anyone else that has adopted from China. I'm not for sure but it looks that way to me. I do pray every night that all the orphans in the world will find a family forever.
