It's A Girl !!





We got "the call" Thursday night that we have a new daughter and sister! I had been a nervous wreck all day. I had heard that PLAN had received a large batch of referrals. I drove poor Sandie at PLAN crazy with my emails. Finally about 6:15 she called! Ava is in Hanoi Orphanage #1 in Vietnam. She was born on 3/9/07. She is gorgeous! The orphanage sent a note with her pictures that said she is the brightest baby in the orphanage! We are so thankful to God for blessing us with this precious baby. I am also thankful to PLAN who have done and great job so far and have been very patient with me. We hope to go get Ava in about 6-8 weeks.
