We've Been Submitted

We were submitted last week on a baby girl born Sept. 11th 2006. That means we are in a pool with several other families where the committee will look at all the homestudies and pick three or four "finalists". Please keep us in your prayers. I am trying to contain my excitement because being our first time submitted, it is a long shot. The baby girl seems to be healthy from what we were able to read about her. She is 1/2 hispanic, 1/2 white, so odds are she will be beautiful! I hope we get her. We should know more by the mid to end of October.

We Are Approved

We were approved on Tue, August 8th. I know, I must not be too excited since I have waited so long to post. I am excited-very excited! I just have been so busy getting into school. As some of you know I have started teaching high school this year. I am loving it! I have the same feeling as when I decided to teach special ed. I have found my niche. High school is more challenging. I can intimidate a 5th grader into submission, but I have to work to get these 10-12th graders to do what I want. It is great! I am very happy! The only thing that would make me happier is a baby to become available. Please pray for us as we once again wait. At least this is the final waiting stage. I hope you all had a great Labor Day weekend!
