Update
We met the child's Case Worker on Saturday at an Adoption Event. At this point we are waiting to see if she chooses our Homestudy and accepts us. She recieved our Homestudy & Profile a week ago Monday. Unfortunately we are really at a WAITing game. Please pray for our patience during this process. If he's not the baby for us, then another hopefully will come along.

So the happy news is............
We found out that we are a 100% match for this little guy. He has been waiting placement for 5 months now, and we came up in the system as a MATCH!! A few things happened on Friday, which made us once again wonder if this was God's way of assuring us He is in the picture. Jim & I are excited, but of course we aren't getting our hopes up too high, after falling last time. While this case is more positive that it could happen, we still are guarding our hearts. Basically, our SW is working with the baby's Case Worker, so now it's a waiting game on our end. Of course after wanting a child for 12 years (not through the adoption process.....but biologically) we are pretty good at practicing patience, yet we are hopeful that we will get a call soon. In many areas of the bible it speaks of asking God, and He answers. We feel assured that He is listening to us, and once we released all desires into His hands, we began to see Him at work. Sometimes trusting God is the hardest part, but He always blesses His children.....somehow. God is Good!!
So we are a 100% match, but it isn't a 100% deal until we get a call.
Thanks for your continuous prayers.

So here we are again
We have been on the phone with our Social Worker, with yet another possible match. This is a baby boy, 5 months old. He has been in the care of a Christian Foster Mom since birth.
Please join us in prayer as we possibly pursue this child. If God is leading us closer to finding our baby, then we pray that we will feel His peace and joy that only he can give.
All the details and little things look so hopeful in this situation. Jim & I are feeling a little cautious, so we don't open a wound in our hearts to yet another hurt. The nursery is still full of baby boy things.........hmm!!
We should know more by Monday...................... stay tuned!
