I can't believe I'm getting to write this post... but the conference call took place today and 90 seconds after the call ended, they called our adoption coordinator and picked us! I was in shock. Like any good infertile, I had prepared myself for the worst, thinking I would only be pleasantly surprised if things turned out differently. Well, they did!
Placement will take place in 2-3 weeks, but hopefully we'll get to meet A sooner than that. His foster parents seem to be really sweet (from what our coordinator told me), so I really can't wait to meet them.
There are lots of things to do to prepare for his arrival in our lives: car seats to buy, stroller shopping to do, and toys and books and blocks and trains! But for tonight, there's celebrating to do!
Oh my goodness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay! Les, I can't tell you how excited I am, and I'm sure it's nothing compared to what you're feeling. I saw your title on my reader and my eyes teared up. Now all my prayers will be focused on everything going smoothly until he's in your arms!
