"Countdown to Referral" tickers come to a stop!!!



There you have it-879 days we waited between our Log-In-Date (the date our dossier was officially registered with The China Center of Adoption Affairs in Beijing) and the day we received her referral telling us who they had matched us with....the ENCHANTING little Miss "Gan Li Ming" from Jiangxi !!



Finally, I got to remove these tickers off my blog last night! As you can see, it was a loooong wait. It was and is tough, but we knew that "what God started in us, He'd bring to completion" in His timing; not ours......And she's worth every minute of it!!!

I am a friend of Gwen Oatsvalls and wanted to say congrats on the referral of your beautiful daughter!!

I read that you have a son at kanakuk- my two boys are there right now and we leave tomorrow to go to K-Kauai (family camp.) We love that place. :)

Hope you get to travel soon, not sure how it works with China. We are waiting to go to Ethiopia to get our baby boy. :)

CONGRATS!!! Macy is beautiful. We are LID 4-4-07 with Bethany Christian Services. We live in West TN. Just found your blog - we have 3 handsome bio sons also. I think these boys are going to make great big brothers.
I'm looking forward to watching you travel to bring Macy back to good ole TN!!!!
Blessings,
Charity
