Surprise! Today's the day!!

   We're getting a child! Wow, we are flooded with emotions of excitement and nervousness.
   Thursday at our home inspection we sat down and were asked about taking a boy who was 7 years old. I don't want to give anymore details about him so I'm just gonna refer to him as "M." Of course we said yes. We were leaving to go out of town to a concert and see family so we told them we would take him when we got back.
   So Thursday we left home as a couple and we are coming home today as a family. One hour after getting back home we are gonna meet our little boy! I say "our" little boy because for as long as God wants, M will be ours.
   To be honest, we are going into this knowing he could be ours forever. He has been through a lot and doesn't have a family because he's been in the system so long. He's available for adoption and has had false hope for a forever family many times and we don't want to be that.
   I can't give all the details about him but I will say we have no reason to think it shouldn't work out. He's needing love and we have love to give. We know there will be trials but we also have faith the God who brought us to this will bring us through this.

P.S. M is a cutie pie and sounds like a great child and we are so ready to meet him!
