I'm not barfing...

But we are expecting a baby. Or child.
We think.
We've submitted all our application work, pictures, tax documents, contracts...
Basically we've taken the "test" and now we wait. Wait for 1 line or 2. Wait weeks, not minutes to figure out if we are "expecting."
We eagerly await to shout it out, but for now we cautiously pray, that the desire to grow our family through adoption would move forward. We trust that our great God, our own adoptive Father has given us this desire!
So we ask that you join us too, in hopeful expectation that our baby, already born, or perhaps yet conceived, somewhere in Ethiopia would someway know that they are loved, prayed for and hoped for, and we that we can't wait to bring them home.
I've always wondered why a blog in the process of adoption, and 2 weeks in, I know. It's a lot of information. There are many questions from all our friends and family...and (although we really have nothing to share at this point) we are happy to share this adventure with all those who love us. However, the reality is, I can't be on the phone 30 hours a day sharing every detail with every friend and family member. So, we have revived this blog to consolidate all the information and all our thoughts here.
We welcome comments and questions. And we covet prayers as we embark on the unknown!
In every joy and in each heart ache along the way, we pray that all glory be given to Christ Jesus our Lord, who made our own adoption into God's family, our reality.
More to come!
Terri for the Coffeys!
