The rollercoaster is starting...
Well, we found out on Thursday that we were supposed to be getting a little dude in the next week or so. He was a newborn little boy. We were super excited but also prayed that God would close doors and block the placement if it wasn't the one that was supposed to be in our family. We found out today that those doors have been closed! Little Dude went to live with another family over the weekend.
While we are a little disappointed, we feel like God had a better place for that little boy and has a better fit for our family in the future. Additionally, it was a wonderful "dry run" for us in the future. The fact of the matter is that placements will usually come to our house within hours of receiving the phone call and this little teaser let us realize a whole host of things we had yet to plan for :-) We are better prepared for a placement in the future now.
We are so excited about being able to help out and show love to the child God has for our family.
We'll keep you posted!

HI! How fun to find you're blogging! I heard from my sister today that Little Dude was placed with another family. My heart broke for you, but I am so glad that you're trusting God with the whole thing. I think your outlook is right on. God has a Little Someone out there with your family in mind!
Love and a hug!
And now look who God has placed in your family! HIs timing is perfect, isn't it!
