Last weeks "Monday Blues" were quickly washed away when we received "The Call" from our birhtmom. Little did we know that what was about to unfold would likely change our lives forever. Our week off from work must have been sent from God, because I would never have been able to concentrate on all of these details if I had to go to work this week. We were sort of depressed that we were not really "going on vacation" but just visiting family, but the family visits we planned (and figured would not be real exciting) turned out to be filled with exciting news, lots of happy tears, and of course, my favorite pastime, SHOPPING!
The LORD works in mysterious ways, for sure!
We heard from "B" while I was driving down the Garden State Parkway, in shore traffic.At about 70 miles and hour. Good times. After I missed her call because I was driving, I pulled over, let M drive and tried to call her back. I was, to put it mildly, a mess. When we finally made contact, the conversation began to unfold naturally and things got a lot better for my stomach!
When we arrived at my in laws, house, we tried to act normal, but we couldn't hold back and delivered the news to M's parents and went out for a celebration dinner. At Charlie Brown's. The Early Bird shift. With coupons. True story!( We had a GREAT time!)
The next day brought some baby shopping and M's mom bought us our Pack and Play, because "B" is due in approximately 6 weeks and it's unlikely that we will be able to get our furniture delivered in such a short period of time. I need to get busy!
My New Home! :)
