I've pinched myself

I'm not dreaming--if the old adage holds true.

We're pursuing it. We're actually pursuing the idea of adopting a baby girl from China. I don't know which is more overwhelming--the thought that we may go to China to get a baby girl or the thought that, after making myself forget the dream, I might have a daughter. Me. A daughter. Us. A daughter. The boys. A sister. Mom and Dad. A granddaughter. Rich. A niece.

And an abandoned baby. A home. With us.

I'm praying for finances to come from places we never dreamed of. If God is behind this as I believe he is, I'm not expecting easy, but I am expecting fulfillment.

And this might be a good while off still. I need to pray for patience, too.
