Martin's 8 !!!!

That's right. Yesterday our little dog turned 8 years old!!! It's hard to believe its been that long but its true. He's such my little shadow. Many have asked how we think he'll do when his world gets turned upside down with the addition of two little ones and we think he'll be fine. We know it will be an adjustment (as it will be for all of us) but we plan to continue to include him in everything so he'll just roll along, we hope. I have visions of him laying by my feet in the middle of the night as I rock our little one back to sleep. Happy Birthday Buddy!!!!!

This week we got a phone call from our agency for Korea just asking a simple question about our immigration forms. When the phone rang and I saw on the caller ID WHFC my heart skipped a beat and my hands started shaking. Now my head knows that logically our referral call would not be coming this early, but my heart wouldn't listen. Someday that phone will ring and it will change our lives forever. I have replayed that moment in my mind over and over again and know that it will be one of the greatest moments in our lives. We know that we told you all we won't discuss timeframes with you but we want to be clear that it will be a bit of a wait for referral. This process isn't lightening speed, just faster than a snail's pace!!!! So, until that life changing phone call happens we enjoy the anticipation and all that comes along with it.
