Waiting

Well, here we are. At BWI waiting for our plane to leave for Houston, Texas. Waiting..that is something we got very good at. Waiting for our homestudy appointments, waiting for our clearances, our fingerprints, etc. Waiting for the call that would fill our home with more joy. Then on November 2, 2005 we received that magical call. "You were chosen!" We couldn't stop crying. It seemed surreal. Tami our caseworker said that Kara loved our album and was so happy that you would be spoiled by two older brothers and dogs and 4 sets of Grandparents. Your Dad and I are so nervous and excited. We are going to meet your birthmom, Kara, tomorrow. We pray that she will feel our love for you. That she will know that we will do anything for you, raise you to be a beautiful person. To be happy, and secure and self-confident. We can't wait to meet you. The best thing is that we have no idea whether you are a Caroline or a Logan, a Chloe or a Joshua. It is now 7am Monday, December 5, 2005 and we are in the 'waiting' room of the hospital. We did not get much sleep last night. We met Kara, Jada who is 2 years old and soooo cute, and Jada's grandma. We had a great visit. We answered all their questions and laughed alot. We can not wait to hold you and count your toes and fingers and kiss you all over.
