Info on Our Girl!!

Just a few details on this precious little girl!! At present she is 22 months old. She will turn 2 years old in June. The crazy thing is guess where she is from..... The Guangdong Province!! Look at my blog from Sunday 3/25 if you don't know the significance of this!! God is AMAZING!!!! We were frantic and a little overwhelmed yesterday when our family coordinator called us to let us know we had been matched with a little girl! We expected this to happen in a few months never this quickly!! So we reviewed her file, prayed, and felt confirmed in the decision to proceed with this little girl! The fact that she is from Guangdong just confirmed our decision. The boys response to this precious little girl also confirmed God's calling for us to proceed with this little one! Her Chinese name is so special (no details at this time). The first part of the name is like our last name in the U.S. The other part is more like her first name. So, I told Eric to look up what her first name means and it means "orchid". So, putting that with Khloe which means "blooming" our baby's name will mean "blooming orchid"!!! How beautiful is that?? God works out even the smallest details doesn't He!! Anyway, to say the least we stayed up until 1:30am this morning completing the paperwork to ensure that noone else could lock in this little girl. Our EA (electronic acceptance or letter of intent) has been sent off and she will be our girl! So we expect to travel in about 6 months give or take a bit. I don't know how I am going to wait to get my hands on this little girl!! PRAY for her and for us through this stage! Just remember, "I (we) prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me(us) what I(we) asked of Him." 1 Samuel 1:27!!!!
We can't post pics or details until after the RA is received so if you want to see her then you got to wait!!!
