Today was 18 Years in the Making

Eighteen years ago today this super cute boy who gave me butterflies came to pick me up for our first date.  He took me to Knott's Scary Farm where I got to grab onto him every time someone jumped out at us.  It was a perfect first date.

Today I got to call this super handsome man that still gives me butterflies and tell him that we are going to have a baby very soon. 

We were chosen. 

We had to wait TWELVE days for this birthmom to make her decision, which may not seem like a long time, but when our last birthmom took less than 24 hours... twelve days seemed like an eternity!  But now I know why we waited twelve days. 

God had a plan. 

He wanted us to have this sweet confirmation of being matched on a special date.

Our baby is due on November 15th.  We don't know whether it is a boy or a girl. 

Right now we have two specific prayer requests:

• That our birthparents would get to Utah quickly {that is where our agency is located and they are from another state}.  The sooner they are there, the sooner we will have more answers.
• That God would continue to protect our baby that has had very little prenatal care.  We are so confident that God knew from the moment this baby was conceived that he or she was ours, so we are trusting in His almighty care.  

Thank you all for the support and love you have shown us.  We are basking in God's rich blessings today.
