God has been so gracious to us in this process and He continues to provide financially. (Check out the thermometer!!) Over the past few months we have had a few families and churches give to our adoption fund. One family, in particular, sold a sizable item and donated the money to our fund. We are so thankful that so many share our passion for the orphan. To be a recipient of such generous acts of kindness is humbling. These gifts took us totally by surprise. Surprises are good great!
Since this is June, a referral month, we could be matched with our daughter! I'm trying to balance wonder, excitement, and realism. In a nutshell, 3-6 children are released into our adoption program every 3 months. Remember my number?

I do believe that numbers 1-5 are all asking for girls as well, but I'm not absolutely certain. (For some reason our agency likes to keep a few secrets...) In all likelihood our match will happen in September or December... And with that match we will receive pictures! ***Squeal!!!
Then after the match, we will wait on Thailand to officially approve the match and invite us in country to get our daughter. The current travel trend is a year. So, there's still a bit a waiting. :)
My girlfriend gave me this Christmas gift. But isn't this the perfect adoption waiting gift?!
I've been saving it for a chocolate crisis! I'll let you know when I break the glass, haha. And I do believe I'll savor each and every bite!
