Our Christmas Eve!

On Christmas Eve, we told Alan's family about the adoption!! I took a pink piece of paper and wrote on it "We have started the process to adopt a little girl from China. You will be grandparents in a little over a year a half. Love Alan and Renee"

I took the message and rolled it up and put it in a bottle, and wrapped it for his mom to open. She opened it and immediately started getting teary-eyed. She was thrilled!

We cannot wait for the day that we get our referral and can share that news with both of our families!

I went to Target yesterday and got an exceptional book about international adoption: The Complete Book of International Adoption http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Book-International-Adoption-Finding/dp/0767925203












We are praying that God's will be done in this whole thing. We received word (not official yet though) that there may be some qualifications that may go into effect that may inhibit the process, but again, nothing is approved yet. Pray with us that God's will is done!

That's all for now. Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and Have a great New Year!!!
