He's working

Last night we had the blessing of talking with our expectant mom (emom). She was wonderful!! The conversation was so easy. I was a nervous wreck while we were waiting on the call, but as soon as it started everything was so natural. One of the social workers was on the line and she began by asking Melissa (emom) to tell us about our profile and her experience with it. She told us that after she decided to give her baby up for adoption she prayed for God's guidance and direction. She began searching in the yellow pages and came across our agency. She did a web search of it and looked over some of the family profiles that were there and was drawn to our family. Mind you, I had no idea our profile was online!! She said she kept going back and looking and always loved our family. So fast forward to last week when she arrived at the agency and was presented with families. The owner of the agency told her they'd selected some families that they thought she'd like. When he handed her the stack ours was on top. She knew it was meant to be us! I let her know that I'd been praying for her since we started this process. I have looked forward to this day for months. We have been waiting and trusting and praying and believing that He was working even when we couldn't see it. I've said for months that I couldn't wait to be able to tell our story and give Him all the glory. I know there will be many more moments like this in the coming days. But for now I'm taking this one in. We left the call with such an assurance and peace of mind. Also, we found out that her c section will be February 26 or 27!! 5 1/2 weeks (but who's counting)!!! This weekend we are rearranging rooms and preparing the nursery. Stay tuned!
