We found out only a little over a month ago that we were chosen by a birth mom, a little over 2 weeks ago we found out it was a girl, and today we found out we are going to Florida for a few days so we can go to an ultrasound with our birth mom. Life is really exciting right now.
In March, we will go to Florida for a few days and hopefully spend some time with our birth mom. We have talked to her several times on the phone and she is SO sweet and kind. Adoption is really awesome. I never really knew how I would feel about a relationship with my daughter's birth mom. I had hopes but I didn't really know. The second we spoke to her the first time, all my worries seemed to be comforted. We are in this together and it is a beautiful thing. There is a whole lot of peace in knowing that God has our baby exactly where she needs to be.
Our puzzle fundraiser has been incredible! So many of you have donated pieces. It has been an incredible reminder for John and I to see all the peoples names written down who have and are continuing to bless our life so much. THANK YOU! We have 191 pieces left. How awesome is that?
John got to chose the name this time. It was kind of exciting for me to see what he would chose. I was also a little worried :) He finally chose the name Thea. It's pronounced "Thee-uh." I was so pleasantly surprised and it feels perfectly sweet for our baby girl. We don't have a middle name yet but I am hoping to pressure J enough to decide soon.
