official august numbers

We are #8 for the boys and #9 for siblings! We only moved down one spot so we didn't have much movement this past month, but praying that there is more movement this next month on the list. More movement means more kiddos getting to be with their families :)

I am so longing for this child. This child that I already love, though I have never met and I have never even seen. I bought him a blanket today. Ready to be sent to him when we get the referral!

In the mail today I got a necklace that Adam bought for me. I took it out of the mailbox and while still outside opened it and put it on. It is sterling silver Africa with a heart on it. So cute and so special. I am not taking it off! I am not pregnant with this child, so it's been hard. My emotions have been crazy. I have this necklace so that he can be close to me while we are waiting for him. I will try to post a picture of it later.

  1. I remember being SO emotional during our wait too. I have the same necklace and still wear it all the time. Once our chicken pox are cleared up we really should get together. I guess now that school is starting afternoons would be best.

  2. I would love to see a picture of your necklace. I've been looking for one. Side note: We were in your city last night for a wedding downtown! It is only 2 hours 45 min. from us...we could get the boys together sometime.
