Ohana means family. Family means no one gets left behind or forgotten.

Got our number
We got our referral list number. It is unofficial as some referrals were made prior to our number so I am waiting for the official number to share :) Maybe you guys can share with me what age and gender you are waiting on ! Me a girl under 18 months :) more tomorrow...
Yeah for you guys! I am glad the dossier made it safe and sound. I am excited to hear their are more referrals. I can't wait to move some more down the list. Our parameters are set for a 0-24 month girl. We are still praying about narrowing that even more. I want a baby, but I know that might not be the child God has chosen for our family.
We just submitted our application so we're not that far along in the process. However, we will ask for an infant girl 0-12 months. Might mean a longer wait :-|, but that will leave a nice age span between our daughter at home and our new daughter that will be coming home one day.
"...Once our eyes are opened, we can't pretend we don't know what to do. God who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls knows that we know, and holds us responsible to ACT..." Proverbs 24:12
"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27
