Well there are stirrings happening and it is so difficult not to get our hopes up! Ever since we started this journey back in July we have faced a couple different possibilities. We have been trying to be very careful to not get our hopes up and we just keep trusting that whatever is supposed to happen will happen. We were hoping for a little one for Christmas, and that would have been the best Christmas present that we could have ever hoped for, but looks like that is not going to happen. We have already had a couple of the possibilities not work out, and that is okay, we were not completely let down because we have not been getting our hopes up too high. Well a couple of new possibilities have presented themselves, and once again we have to guard our hearts and hope that they are legitimate. We have to watch out for scams, and be very careful. There are so many risks involved, and we never know which way we should go or what exactly is the right thing to say or do. We just have to continue to keep the faith and keep hoping that God will lead us to the right birthmother or to the right child. Our hearts are ready, open, and willing to take in not only a child, but a new member of the family. To some it may seem unconventional, but we believe there is a birthmother out there who needs us just as much as her little miracle inside her. We are ready to be there for her and for her to become part of our family. Once again there are so many risks that have to be taken, and we have to trust complete strangers who may live across the country! Never before have we had to have so much trust in the Lord for guidance. Our lives and future are completely in His hands. Please continue to pray for us that we will be led in the right direction and that all the worries and questions we have will be answered and put to rest. We feel the year 2013 is going to be a very big year for us with a lot of changes! It is very exciting and very scary, but we will continue to have faith and hope!
