WE HAVE MATCHED!!!!





We are SO EXCITED to share with you that we are officially matched with a baby due MAY 22nd!! 

This past week as been a whirlwind of emotions. We presented last week to a situation, that we really felt God calling us to. I felt so good about the entire thing and I really truly thought that this was our time to be picked! I was nervous, but excited to hear the mom's decision on Monday morning. After several hours my phone buzzed and I saw the text that the birth mom had picked a different family. My heart sunk and ached with pain from the loss of my dream of what could have been.

On Tuesday, our hearts still really hurt. We saw a new situation that sounded perfect, but I could not let myself get excited. It just seemed too good to be true. I got a text that Thursday night the mom would receive families profile books. I struggle with patience, so I quickly responded "so I should expect to wait a few days before hearing anything?" Thursday night was totally normal, we went shopping at costco and came home to eat dinner and watch TV. Super uneventful and kind of boring.... then my phone rang! I was immediately worried because it had only been a few hours. That is when we found out that the birth mom PICKED US to be the parents of her sweet baby that is due to arrive on May 22nd! That means that in about 2 weeks we will have a baby in our arms.

Right after the phone call!!

We humbly ask you to consider doing two things:

1) PRAY: This has been an amazing journey, but it is not over! Please begin to pray for us, for the birth mom, and the sweet baby.
2) Consider Giving: We have been saving, and fundraising to make this dream a reality! Because the baby is due SO soon we only have a couple weeks to get the rest of the money together.  Adoption is an amazing gift, and we feel so blessed to journey through it, but the financial side is scary. We are trusting in God that He will provide and we could use your help!

Please consider giving to #bringinghomebabytrygg! You can follow this link to our online giving page! Every prayer and dollar helps!!
