Shock, joy, nervous, elation, infinite gratitude. We're still processing emotions, so I make no promises of eloquence. We've been matched with a birth mom from Fresno who likes our profile!
We spoke with her for an hour last night and she is due in September, the same week we were due just a year ago. She's also due about 9 months after we walked into the agency looking for a new path. So, our gestation period will be about 9 months after all. :-)
She would like us to be there for the delivery and we're excited to share in the moment. We thanked her for sharing so much and for laughing with us last night. When we texted her (yes, I'm fast becoming the addict I feared) to ask the sex of the baby.....
She forwarded us the ultrasound picture of her baby girl, our baby girl, and I fell apart. We're awaiting the delivery of our beautiful daughter.
More to come, when there are words to describe it. For now, just know that we're nowhere near touching the ground. We need all of your love beams, prayers, positive vibes, whatever you do to send love into the universe. We're hoping beyond hope that this is the start of the love story of our growing family.
After a long, emotional, unbelievable day learning about our daughter.
