She has a name!

drumroll please.....................

are you ready?

you sure?

Be excited.  We are.

Her sweet, precious name is going to be Maggie!!!!

Maggie (birth/African name) Runner

pretty awesome?  Yep we think so.  Reagan was named after my grandmother - who I was also named after and we believed that it was a great tradition to follow.  Maggie is named after Eric's mother. 

We pray for Maggie every night as we go to bed and she starts her day.  Please join with us.  Our dossier is in Ethiopia and the courts/orphanage and whoever else is going to match us with our baby girl. We know God's hand is in this and we are comforted by that....but you know me, a few extra prayers never hurt nobody :) 

And away it goes!!!!

Yep...today is the day....we are sending out our dossier (aka international paperwork) that is linked to helping ethiopia to match us with our child.  It doesn't look like much, I gotta admit.  Let me tell you...Eric has worked so hard on it.   He has checked and rechecked it to make sure that every i is dotted and every t is crossed.  I don't know what is in store for us.  Are we scared?  Yep.  Are we excited?  Yep.  Are we completely, 100% out of our element?  For sure!!!! but we can't wait to move to our next step.....seeing a pic of our baby girl.  We know and trust that God has her picked out for us....we really can't wait to see!
