It's Official!!

God has the best sense of humor!  We have finally received our certificate of approval for adoption, after nine months of waiting.  Did you catch that?  God said we had to wait 9 months, like everyone else.  Such irony!  Naturally, life has continued as we wait.  The price of oil has plummeted, which in turn causes massive layoffs in the oil and gas industry.  The industry, of course, in which Cowboy and I are both employed.  We're nervous.  We're nervous about losing our jobs.  We're nervous about finalizing an adoption when our finances could be in danger.  We're nervous about ensuring that a stranger feels secure in this family.  But, we're also excited.  We are so blessed to have the little family we currently have, and blessed to be expanding.  I can't wait to see who God picks for us!
