Today was crazy and over scheduled. After an emotional day at nursery school (see previous post) we went to the elementary school to meet Igor's Kindergarten assistant. Then we went to Igor's dentist appointment. I LOVE his new dentist. She is awesome. We were driving home from the dentist's office when my cell phone rang. It was a 703 number... I thought, Terra is calling with our referral. Yep, it was Terra and she had our referral! I told her we would call her right back. (yes, really)
I called Rob at the church. He was home in 2 minutes (his office is one mile from the house). We called Terra back. She said that she had the cutest little boy for us. She is right, he is very cute! He is a toddler. She said we had a week to accept the referral. We thanked her for calling and then we hung up. Yep, we hung up... why? because Igor had a doctor's appointment in 10 minutes! We couldn't linger, ask questions or soak anything up, we needed to move on to the next activity.
When we got in the car I called Terra back. I wanted to know if there was any possibility of getting a court date before the court closes in August. She said, "Hope for the best but plan for the worst."
I'll write more about that tomorrow. We have more phone calls to make.

Candy,
Congratulations!! I do have a question-there was a little boy who climbed into Josiah's crib and clawed his face. Could it be YOUR son? Not sure if he is someone else's or not, but I vowed I would find those parents...
Congratulations! Praying you get court and travel very quickly. Email me or Jill, we may have pictures (though they are almost 2 months old now!).

Yay!!! Congratulations!!! I'm so happy to read this news, Candy! I'll definitely be hoping for the best...and praying to that end! Look forward to reading a little more once you have a chance to soak it all in. I remember being on the phone for 2 days straight after our referral...it took a week or two for it to feel real because I was so busy right after our referral. :)
I'm so happy for you guys and I can't wait to see his pictures!!!
