Encouragement...

This has been a big week for us! If we're really honest, we had some serious nerves about telling something so personal and potentially out of the blue, but God put those fears to rest immediately when so many people showered such unabashed love on us. We have been truly overwhelmed with the response. Often times it was those who knew the least about these plans that offered the most encouragement, a real testament to their hearts. We're so excited about the next year, and we have great joy thinking about bringing our baby home - but we never imagined that our friends, families and even strangers would share this excitement at the same level. God has definitely used you to encourage us with your heartfelt congratulations and thoughtful notes which have made this one of the best weeks to date! So, in short, thank you - for your support, your prayers, and your willingness to come along side us in this. We love you!
