On May 4th (May the 4th be with you indeed), we were connected with a birthmother in the Atlanta area. Things have progressed very well and we have started what seems to be a lasting relationship. We speak almost everyday and learn more about each other. She would like an open adoption and that fills our hearts with joy. I am grateful it is all of our intent to provide baby girl (yes, it's a girl) with endless opportunities to know how loved she is by all of her parents. I will be traveling to Atlanta in early July to meet with her (Jim was invited of course, but for a "last minute" trip, we thought it would be easier for just one of us to travel). Baby girl is due in August. We are very hopeful and excited. Our plan is to take things day by day, knowing this is all in God's hands.
Thank you for your continued prayers and support. We promise to keep you posted.

Prayer
"Father, thank You for the blessing and victory You have in store for my future. Thank You for allowing me to see and hear in my heart the good things You have planned. I choose to keep my eyes on You and declare Your blessing over my life in Jesus's name." 1 Kings 18:41

Rage Against the Minivan
I stumbled across this blog today and found it funny, inspiring, and educational. You can click around to specific posts about adoption, parenting, traveling, and more. If you are a mother, I'm sure you will get a kick out of her stories. I am constantly growing and learning more about myself (and others) through the adoption process. Check it out and enjoy!
