We began the process to adopt a child from the Philippines in January 2007 and received ICAB approval in May 2008. On October 29, 2010 we were matched with our son Rafael and he joined our family on February 20, 2011!! Now we are home and are enjoying the adventures of parenting!!

What a rush!
I was at work this afternoon when the secretary rushed into the office to say "can you take a call ?" There was this happy, excited look on her face and the first thing I thought was could this be THE CALL? Of course, I never expected to hear anything anytime soon, but you can always be hopeful. I ran to the telephone and ............ it was my dentist's office. I have an appointment tomorrow afternoon! Well it was almost like an April Fools joke. I had to laugh! Like I said, I never expected to hear anything yet so I'm not disappointed but I can only imagine how excited I will be when the real time comes!!

Wow, that is funny. I can only imagine all the thoughts running through your head and then it is the dentist. Well,have fun at the dentist tomorrow.
DANG. Why would the secretary be smiling and excited about the dentist? That part is kind of funny. I can't wait to read your excited referral post :)
Ahaha! I guess a part of you is waiting for that call! ;) I had the same kind of desapointment 7 months ago.. my agency called, left a message on my answering machine. I was waiting for my acceptation from the ICAB. I was sooo excited! But it was a little thing!! Kind of desapointing when you wait for THE news! :D
Good luck.. your time will come! And then, you will be excited for real! :D
That's cute...I could just picture the scene unfolding!
Thanks for making me smile Renee :)
Hope you get the real call with a referral very, very soon...you must be getting really close now, and your turn will come soon!! By the way, love the song selection on your blog!! Good choice :0)
Too funny! I am telling you, it only gets worse. Everytime my cell phone or home phone rings, my heart always skips a beat. Did you tell your secretary your thoughts? Sorry about your call...regardless enjoy a good teeth cleaning. :)
Your time will come when you least expect it. Our social worker called me at work the day after Labor Day and I thought it was for my correct email address...never dreamed it could be our referral for Jay-R! Prayers are with you...the day will be before you know it!
