Been so long since I have posted. Ups and downs, waiting...and waiting...wondering and waiting some more. The wait that seemed so long is now unimportant, a short blip in our journey to bring home our third child....all melted away on Thursday, June 21st.

After 20 months (to the day) on the wait list we received that phone call we have been waiting for... On June 21st at 3:14 pm I heard the words, "I have a referral for you"... breathe, repeat, then scream with joy... that's pretty much how it happened at our house.

And then we 'met', via pictures and words on some documents, our son. The sweetest brown eyes looking back at me. Wow. YES!! YES!! YES!!
We hoped and wished to be submitted to court asap so as to POSSIBLY get a court date pre court-closure. Thought that it would take a miracle but not giving up hope to get that court date and be able to meet our little man soon.

Submitted to court on July 6th.... told by our coordinator on the 11th that it was unlikely we would get a court date before closure... next morning- July 12th... that awesome phone number flashed on my caller ID. Not wanting to get too excited I nonchalantly answered hello? AND YES!! Court date for July 31st... 2 weeks and 5 days away.

So now we hustle and bustle, pack and plan and generally 'get our acts together' to come meet you baby Y. Heart is spilling over with joy, anticipation and excitement.... and love...yes, LOVE. We are coming to see you sweet angel!
