So Excited!!!

Adopting a child is filled with emotional highs and lows.  Although we have only recently begun the adoption process and are still waiting to be matched with a child, we have already run through a gauntlet of emotions.  We have been overwhelmed by the love and support we have received from our friends and family-it is unbelievable how so many people are praying for us and working on our behalf to bring a child into our home.  We have been excited by small leads that could turn into a child of our own, and we have been disappointed by some doors closing.
Today we are feeling incredibly excited and hopeful!!!  Our lawyer met with a couple who may be considering us as potential parents for their unborn child.  Just the idea that birth parents are interested in us brings me to tears!  The feeling that our dream to become parents may soon be a reality is beyond awesome!  We are extremely hopeful that this couple finds a connection with us and that they feel we would be the right people to raise their baby.  We are hopeful that in a matter of a few, short weeks, we could bring a baby home, making us a family.  We are hopeful that after all these years and all the attempts to conceive a baby on our own, we could finally hold a baby in our arms.  Yes, without a doubt, today is a day filled with excitement and hope!!
