Happy Birthday to Me!

What a day today has been!  It started with breakfast in bed from my two sweet girls, was followed by the sweetest card a wife could ever want from her hubby (LOVE him SO!), a great morning with my other 9 kids at the preschool, and some of the BEST NEWS EVER!!!

So as part of the Home Study and Approval process, there is a series of questions that you must answer - kind of an interview on paper.  Depending  on how you answer these questions, the China and/or US Governments may require prospective parents to have a psychological evaluation.  This includes, an IQ test, a personality test, and a clinical session with a licensed psychologist.  Who wants to have to do that?  Not to mention it would cost us an additional $1600 a pop!  But, God is good (yes, I would still know that He is good either way) and we DON'T have to do that!  Yay!!!!!!

ALSO, we heard from our Family Coordinator at America World that China had received our Electronic Acceptance and request to adopt this little man.  AND we were issued our Pre-Approval today!!  The letter they sent is actually dated today - March 25, 2015 - My Birthday!!!  What this means is that the China Centre for Children's Welfare and Adoption has reviewed all the information that we sent them with our request to adopt, and based on all the information that they have right now, are accepting our request and agrees to handle and process our adoption of this particular child!!!  That means that barring something totally unforeseen HE IS OURS!!!!!!

To top it all off, I got a call from our most fabulous HomeStudy Coordinator (who happens to go to my church and is becoming one of my bestest friends :)) asking if we could come early to church tonight to have our first official meeting!!!  Of course we can!!!!!!!

Can this birthday GET any better???????  I pray your day has been as much of a blessing to you as mine has been to me!
