God showed up...BIG TIME. After I spoke with the agency worker last Friday I assumed that all bets were off for us getting the placement of this baby. Mom had moved to another county and I should move on. The last few days have been all about me telling God that I truly DO trust Him and I'll wait. Yesterday, my hubby and I left for the day to finish up some Christmas shopping and on our first stop my cell rang. It was the county worker asking if we could meet. I asked if everything was ok and she said it was. She wanted to meet to see if we were interested in taking the baby that had not been born yet. (The same baby I was told about a month ago...the same baby I have been PRAYING about for the last few weeks!!) I told the worker that tomorrow (Thursday) would work better for us. She told me to come in for a morning meeting. Hubby and I both were there and we were filled in on some details (some new, some not) and then they asked if we were interested in fostering this baby that had been born this morning. Like I really had to think about that one :) After all the paperwork was signed we left and did some shopping for my new little man. I actually had the chance to go up to the hospital to see him tonight (Thursday). He is so sweet. 7 lbs of sweet Christmas love. God really showed up. I'm still not sure how long he'll be with us. We're anticipating a few months at least.
But you already know what I'm praying for... :*)
