No, I did not finally become a Fertyl Mertyl: we still have the apparent Fertile Hurdle. BUT we are expecting now to adopt "Amelia"! She is officially out of foster care (which is why I can show her face now). Her mom has custody again, but she is allowing Amelia to remain with us. We are beyond excited and are hoping that it will all work out. We won't know for another month or two, but we can't keep quiet about this.
When we started foster parenting we never dreamt the opportunity to adopt a baby would come this way instead of through the adoption agency with which we are registered. Someday I will relate the whole wonderful story of how we got to this point with Amelia, which started to get good back in November. Its a pretty neat story. But for now, please join in our excitement! We hope it all works out. We will be praying for the judge to execute wise judgement!
I will conclude with some pics of the little star, who has just discovered a love for sunglasses!

I have been thinking about you the last week and I am so excited to see that things are looking good for adopting "Amelia"! Yeah!!!!
What fabulous news! I hope you get her, she's just adorable. Those pictures with face were so satisfying!
Congratulations! That month or two can't pass fast enough. We'll be praying for the judge, too.
I knew you'd be finding out sometime in May so I was hoping this is what I would find when I came to your blog. I'm so happy for you guys.
Yay!!!!! You guys are in my prayers. She is so cute!

We have a baby (got her at 2 days old, she is 2 months now)from the foster care system. I'd love to hear from you and your experience- could you email me if you have time?
