And she is so amazing! She is adorable and so so so so our girl!
We got the call Monday and with it came the warning to send all of her paperwork to the Dr. before accepting. We thought it best not to say anything until we officially accepted the referral. Gosh that's hard.
I just knew in my heart that we would accept and busted out and called my folks the next day. They were just so happy and excited too!!!!
We heard from the Dr. last night and he said her medical status was about the cleanest one you can get in international adoption! We are so thankful.
She is at the House of Hope now and we are also very thankful for them and the care they are giving our baby.
Our caseworker at CHI tried to reach us several times that morning. Mark called me from work at one point and asked if CHI had called me. They had tried to reach him. I hadn't heard a phone all morning but as soon as he said that my heart started racing! He said he'd call them back and get back to me. I started pacing around the living room just about to pop! The phone rang and it was our case worker with Mark on a conference call. She told us then all about our girl and even said at one point I know you're probably only taking about half of this in (I was crying with joy). She was so sweet. She sent the email with her pictures and records next. Mark came home from work so that we could look at her for the first time together. We made a video of that for her to have. We were so involved that we forgot the pizza Mark had put in the oven for lunch until it started smoking!
It has been an amazing week!
We are bursting with joy and so happy to share this long awaited news with you!
