Thank you all

I just wanted to post a quick note of thanks for all the kind words and congratulations around our referral. 

We're all extremely excited and a touch overwhelmed by all that needs to be done to get ready.  These next few months will be a wild mix of harried preparations, mild panic, and painful waiting.  I'm sure that any of you who have gone through the adoption process know, once you have a referral, your child is "real" - and she (or he) is waiting.  In our case, waiting in an orphanage, waiting for her "forever family".  Knowing that there is a real little girl waiting on us can make the passing time cut like a dull knife.  The time since our LID (Log In Date), May 2006, was long and difficult, but it was anonymous waiting - like holding a number at the DMV. Now she is waiting. Each and every day we look at her pictures, we wonder what she's doing, and we pray our hearts out for her.

Thank you again for your kindness. Please keep BabySisterPenny in your prayers.  Thank you all.
