Yahoo!

Today we received the best surprise! We were chosen to be adoptive parents!! We met Tanya and her parents at their home today and enjoyed getting to know each other. Admittedly, we were a little (perhaps a lot!) nervous, but thankfully, Tanya came prepared with questions for us - I wish we would have written some down too. They were great questions like, "How did you meet?" "What was your favorite date?" "Why would your spouse make a great parent?" She even had me whistle her a tune. It was so much fun. We have quite a few things in common such as a love for horses and BYU football! One of her questions was who we support: BYU or U of U - and she probably would have kicked us out right then if we didn't answer correctly:) I was amazed that we could laugh and cry together and share such a wonderful experience together in such a short amount of time. We have truly seen the hand of the Lord in our lives today. We look forward to meeting her whole family in two weeks!
