Our LOA, It's Here!!!!

12/14/11
Well it is finally here and what a day it has been!  Truthfully I was really frustrated today and had given up on hearing anything at all.  I figured it we were going to get any information it would come early in the mornings, so when lunch time came and went I had given up!  But I had really been "talking" to God today, I had told Him that if He was trying to tell us something else and we weren't listening that He was going to have to "slap" us in the face with it!  I told Him that we needed to hear something soon, we had been waiting for 3 1/2 months for our LOA and we were ready!  (a little background, people at work are always asking me if I know anything and I always tell them that they will hear me whenever we get any info and I thank them for asking about her)  So it's 1:25 and I look at my email and there it is!  It says our LOA has arrived!  I SCREAM, "Craig (my boss) it's here, it just came" and before he can even say a word I YELL pretty loud "It's here, we just got it" and everyone comes running!  It was wonderful!  And then the phone rings and it was Tony calling, he had just checked email and saw it too!  We were so excited, but I had a office full of people asking about it and so I had to call him back!  I was crying but it was definitely happy tears!!!!  Finally, after 3 1/2 months we had the next step of our journey to our sweet baby girl!  So I called the agency and emailed them all the info to overnight it to us!  Then I started texting everyone to let them know the news!  We are SOOOOO fortunate to have so many friends and family praying for us and being excited with us, it is wonderful!!!!  Then next step is to get the LOA tomorrow and then sign it and send it back to our agency!  We are ready to get this girl home!!!!  Stay tuned, hopefully things will get going now!  I will keep you posted!
Love,
Renee
