Well I finally have some good news!! We received our referral August 30, 2012. I was driving on my way home from work when the phone rang from our adoption agency. My heart started beating so fast because i just had that feeling. Sure enough, my case worker said, " I have a referral for you".  I totally didn't even know what to say. She started to tell me all about this perfect little guy and told me that she would send his profile in the mail and to review everything and if we were going to accept him to sign the letter and return it. That is just what we did. I wish I could show everyone the picture of him, he is the most beautiful little wide eyed perfect 12 month old boy that I've ever seen. We started this process in 2010 and here it is Sept. 11, 2012 and we finally have our referral. We are now waiting on a court date. Hopefully that will be as soon as possible. I'm praying that all the future steps will be according to God's will and I'm having faith that we won't experience any hurdles. God is so good and I'm amazed of His faithfulness.
