Govt of Sask...for real this time!!!

We got our referral! Typing those words gave me butterflies. I keep on thinking I am going to wake up from a dream, but I'm pretty confident I am awake. My 7-year-old niece was asking me about how I was feeling last night (she is an old soul) and she said, "It is so amazing! You must think, 'This is a dream, but it's not because you keep on sleeping and then waking up and sleeping and waking up again...and no dreams last that long!'" I gave her a big hug because not only had she read my mind perfectly, but it confirmed that I truly am awake.

Our children are so beautiful. We cannot wait to hold them, hear their voices, rock them, read to them, kiss their soft cheeks, make them laugh, wipe away their tears...just be with them. Our son is 3 years and 9 months and his sister is 8.5 months old. Our families are thrilled and the cards and gifts have already started pouring in! These little ones are so loved and they don't even know it yet. We are planning to leave in 2 and a half weeks...crazy!

I have hesitated to post this amazing news for so many reasons, but it is an amazing blessing and we want to share our news to the world. We also want all of our waiting friends to know that we will continue to pray that they are united with their children very soon. Please keep us and our children in your thoughts and prayers over these next few weeks as we prepare to combine our families!
