The UPDATE

Here's the first update.

So, based on my recent participation in a yahoo chat devoted to our adoption program, I believe we are 6th or 7th on the list waiting for an infant boy referral. What does this mean? Well, as there are generally 5 infant boy referrals each month, we hope to hear regarding or child next month some time. We would then get in line for a court date and travel date, both of which would be in the fall. Our FERVENT prayer is that we travel and are home by Christmas. Please continue to pray for us as we wait. We have tolerated our waiting season quite well, considering the many bumps, hurdles, changes, etc. The last few weeks are often the hardest as we see more referrals come in and as our name moves closer and closer to the top.

We'll keep you posted!
