Andrew's Story
On May 1st, 2009 (2 years to the day we saw Anna Grace's face for the first time) My Mom looked at our Agency's SN list. She clicked on the last number on the list and she immediately fell in love with a beautiful little boy. She hurried to my Dad's office and showed him his picture. Again he fell in love as well. They sent the agency an email requesting his file....Within 30 minutes they had emailed us back saying there was a list and he would most likely have a family. We were crushed. So we just kept praying that he would have a family and God's will would be done. On June 10, 2009 we received an email from our agency saying that we were the next family on the list. We immediately started praying. We asked God to Shut the door if it was not his will. He never did. EVER. Every time we would say "Well if this happens we will say Yes" . It always happened. ALWAYS. So completely God. On Monday June 15, 2009 we sent an email to our agency and said "Yes" we would LOVE to adopt __________ (insert Chinese Name) Oh my I was so excited!!! I was going to go back to China and be able to be blessed with another sibling AGAIN!! To celebrate we went out to eat Chinese at our very favorite restaurant! They were also excited for us and translated information for us! Ooh how happy I was! For 2 weeks I was singing "I am getting a brother ; I am getting a brother!"
The excitement of this has not worn off and I doubt it will!
************************************************
Room Pictures are coming!
(I PROMISE soon! I know you all
are ready to take my head off!)
We have not
completely finished
the room yet and I want
you to all see it completed!
To pass time ::
Take guesses on what
the theme of the room is!
