BiG NeWs?

LDS Family Services called yesterday. A 1/2 Navajo woman living in Michigan may place her baby and the social worker she is working with called to find out if there were any Navajo families at our agency.
It turns out that the secretary we've worked with since the beginning (our social worker retired two years ago), was at her last day of work and told the new director of adoption that they should call us.
It also turns out that the night before we were having a conversation with our kids when Olivia suggested it was time for another baby. Isaac reasoned that it should be a boy since there are 3 girls in our family and only 2 boys. His daddy told him they could ask in their prayers for a boy, but we don't really get to choose any other way. If the Lord wants us to have a girl we'd have to take her.
We're going to rush our paperwork in and see what happens. We've never had to wait long, so if this adoption doesn't work out, I'm sure we will still be able to add to our posterity somehow!
The baby is due sometime in the Spring of '08. Keep your fingers crossed!
