WAITING!!

Scratch the last post- WE ARE ON THE LIST!! I just got an email and we are officialy just waiting to get a call from Mary at Gladney saying that she's got our baby boy for us!! I can't believe after all this time that we are at the end and our next step is to see our sons precious face!! It is a wierd yet wonderfull feeling!!! Thank you Lord for bringing us to this point and for Malak- I love him so much already and pray that you keep him safe and warm and happy until mommy and daddy can come get him!

Yes and Yes and Yes. Silas is freaking out excited right now. He just keeps saying Malak, Malak, Malak. Is it weird that Malak is his first word?
