No news is good news.
I know. I have been away.
BUT no news is good news.
We got a call a few weeks ago that we are literally the NEXT on the
list. The lady at our agency told me we
could maybe expect a call this month or next.
Meaning we will soon know who our baby is! Up until this point, waiting hasn’t been too
hard. Besides a small aching in my gut
to be a mother of two, I have been pretty patient and at peace with where we
are in this process. I will admit, at
times it’s hard to see others holding their new babies and not feel
that we are missing a huge part of our family, but I counter that with the
absolute joy it is to be a mom to Max.
He makes it really easy to remember how blessed I am. Not to mention he pretty much keeps me too busy
to feel sad.
Once we got this call, my impatience seemed to rise out of
nowhere, and unfortunately, the waiting
only gets harder from here. Because once
we know who this baby is…I can no longer sit on my hands and wait…at that
point, part of our family will be across the world and we will want/need to be
with him/her. So we will covet your prayers as this starts to get REAL.
Speaking of families…we were blessed to have raised $1500
with my family photoshoots. Here’s a few
snapshots of the families that have blessed us. We have some truly amazing
friends.
