Happy 2 Year Referralversary!!!

Exactly 2 years ago today, on May 23, 2013, while sitting in Panini Pete's restaurant in Fairhope, AL, we got the our long awaited REFERRAL CALL for our precious Caroline Faith Letehiwot in Ethiopia!!!

After 3 1/2 years of waiting we finally saw our daughter's face for the very first time!  She was 9 1/2 months old and had the biggest smile and brightest eyes!  We knew instantly that she was God's perfect plan for our family!!!  I will never forget that amazing day and all the tears and joy as we were so overwhelmed by God's goodness and timing!

Happy 2 Year Referralversary to our daughter, Caroline Faith Letehiwot!!!!  We love you SO MUCH, baby girl!!!

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Jeremiah 29:11

Feeling really discouraged in the waiting right now (almost 16 months waiting for a referral), and just wanted to let you know that every once in a while I come look at your blog and it encourages me. Thanks for posting the positive things!

If the child was adopted by your spouse, then because the definition of child includes a child of the person’s spouse – then the child is also your child for the purposes of superannuation. click here
