When??

We are still waiting--waiting for that phone call that let's us know we are parents again. It is so hard to wait. I don't like it at all!

Two days ago our phone rang with a long distance number. Our agency is out of state and I thought maybe this was the call. The area code was 615 and it turns out our agency's area code is 651. So close!

Michael called his mom several days ago and Riley always likes to be the first one to say "hello." When Michael told Riley that Grammie didn't pick up. Riley said, "Pick up. Go pick up baby sister at the airport?"

Even at two years old it seems like he is antsy for the call. It is definitely easier waiting this time around in the sense that we can look at our precious boy and know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that God's timing is perfect. But, as we are approaching the year mark of our process it is definitely getting harder remembering that this waiting will eventually end.

"Give thanks to the Lord for His goodness and for His wonderful deeds...for He satisfies the longing soul and fills the heart with goodness." Ps. 107:8-9
