Now we’re getting somewhere! We’ve received a great little Christmas gift called spot number seven on the referrals waiting list!
Check out the significance of the number seven…

Now let’s pray for some movement so that we can escalate up the list to numero uno (that’s #1)…
Blessings!

The Waiting List Awaits Us!
Ok. So right now Amy and I are waiting patiently (AHEM) as our Indian Dossier (dossier [‘dosiei] noun, a set of papers containing information etc about a person or a particular matter) makes its way to our adoption agency today. This is it for now. We have completed every task required of us thus far. The last task was to have multiple documents apostilled at our Secretary of State office in Montgomery. Those were sent back to us with the appropriate signatures and seals. We then turned around and added copies of a few other documents and forwarded the bulky completed package to the Adoption agency on Friday.
I am feeling a little surreal about where we are at this point. Anyone who has walked this road before will be able to tell you just what is involved in the process and for us to be where we are right now is amazing. God has been so faithful throughout these last nine months. He has gone before us and prepared the way and has given us favor with every person we’ve had to interact with. People have been so helpful to us and have gone out of their way to make sure we have gotten everything we need. From our bank to our doctors, they have gone above and beyond the call of duty. Amy’s doctor even left her typical office to walk downstairs with us to an area that had a notary. She patiently signed the requested documents and allowed the notary to do her work and maintained a great attitude and Amy even shared a hug with her. Thinking back on moments like that is very humbling. We get to see how much God cares about what He has called us to do.
We should find out today or tomorrow from our adoption agency where we are on the referral waiting list. I can’t wait to see how much information they give us relative to where we are on the list, who we are behind, the gender that others are waiting for, etc. We shall see!!
