Not much has happened since we were officially logged in with China in March. We have had two referral lists come out since then and did not get a call, nor did we expect to. The 2nd list came out at the end of May, while Robbie and I were on our first ever real vacation alone (well, we did take one vacation alone almost 4 years, but my dear sis got vertigo after our first night and we had to come home!!! So, that one really doesn't count!). We were out of the county in Cabo, Mexico and I have to admit that I was a little anxious hoping to receive an email with the face of our baby girl. But, it didn't happen and in my head, I knew it wasn't going to happen, but . . . the heart was longing!
I can't help but think that right now, we have a baby girl somewhere out there waiting for us. For the first time in this process, I feel like she is alive, already conceived or already born. The kids and I were praying for baby girl a couple of weeks ago and my emotions got the best of me! As we were praying, I was asking God to let her know that her forever family is coming for her, that we love and for someone to tell her now, to sing to her now about the deep, deep love of Jesus. The thought of having a baby and not being able to get to her can be an overload on my emotional heart. BUT, it sure helps to know that my Daddy loves her even more that we do and that He is taking care of her while we wait to find her!
Oh, how we love you already baby girl!
