92 days or 3 months

How long have you been your current age?  You don't keep up with how many days since your last birthday?  Well I have this year!  No, not because I'm keeping up with my birthday.  Only because we got the best gift possible on my birthday!  It has been 92 days or 3 months since my birthday!

92 days ago all three of our lives changed. 92 days ago our house got a little louder.  92 days ago my heart felt different.  92 days ago our newest member of our family moved in!  I know that legally she doesn't become a Shands until the court date, but in our hearts she has been a Shands since this day!  For those of you that know the process know that she has to be in our home for 90 days before we can apply for adoption.  Our official placement date was July 6th, so this week we will be able to make our official request for adoption and then we just wait for a court date.  Then you will be able to see this beautiful girl's face.  I have people all the time ask me when we can share information, her name, her face, well we have to wait till the court date! The picture above was taken on the way home the day she moved in.  On my birthday...isn't God amazing!  I could talk to you for hours about how God has worked in our family and process!  We continued to be blessed!  All 92 days haven't been rainbows and sunshine, but we have grown together!  We continue to learn from each other everyday!  The most important thing is that our love is growing and I see God working in our girl everyday!  Please be praying that our wait for court is in God's timing, yes I would like for it to be quick but God knows what time is best for us!  

Stay tuned for all the fun from today!  We have a very EXCITED girl about her Gotcha Shower at church.  Her Mommy is very EXCITED to all our family and friends!!!
