Feb. Update.

Hi Everyone,

Sorry it has been a while since I updated, its been a busy New Year. So yesterday while I was busy preparing a cake for a dinner we are having tonight our house phone rang, and no one ever calls us on our house phone except our parents, and of course it was my father, so Joe and him discussed a few things and they hung up, and as this was happening Joe's Aunt Michelle called him seconds later on Joe's cell phone, as Joe was conversing with our Aunt, the house phone rang again, and I was thinking to myself, hmmmm wonder what Dad or Mom wants know, as Joe handed me the phone to answer since he was on his cell phone I looked at the caller ID and it was Premier Adoptions, my heart started racing and I got the butterflies in my stomach, and looked at Joe and said I think you might need to end you conversation........ this might be it. I answered the phone and it was Isabel our social worker calling, she decided to call with our bi-weekly update since it had been several mths since we physically spoke to each other, she wanted to make sure we knew she was still there and is very optimistic, and updated us on the birthmothers that are currently in the program. So this call was not "The Call", but it felt good to actually hear a voice instead of reading an email update. Sorry to get you all excited there for a minute, but just image how Joe and I felt.

So as of Feb 1st we have been waiting for 7 mths, which for me has flew by. Since the New year I have had this very strong urge to start preparing, so Joe and I ordered and assembled our nursery furniture, which I absolutely LOVE, and my sister and I started shopping for a few neutral outfits. With a few of the most have purchased I feel a lot more prepared and am not stressing out about a possible last minute referral.

That's it for this months update, we ask that all of our family and friends pray for our referral to come soon.

As always Thank you for you love and support.

Joe, Traci and Sargent.
