First, please excuse any typos or grammar as I am typing this from the banks of the Nisqually river while watching my favorite salmon fisherman and his little helper :)
After what seemed like the longest wait EVER we finally got a call from the social worker. She was so sweet, but she informed us that they made a very tough decision and chose the other family to be the adoptive family for this wonderful little boy. She certainly let us down easy and told me that he had an awesome time with both families and that it was a very tough decision for everyone involved. Apparently they even concidered having him spend a week with each family to aid in the decision process but decided that would be too difficult for everyone (I have to say that I am glad for their decision in that regard, we never would have wanted to lose him after a whole week together!)
In the end it is out of our hands and I'm grateful to have even been considered as a potential family for this boy. We will keep praying for him and for his new family (apparently they are military as well! How fun!) We know that God has a plan for our family and we will just have to continue to be patient as we keep waiting for that plan to be revealed!
Love to you all,
B, E & H
