Heart God Heard Our Prayers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Praise God!!! To you be the glory God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday, I had an e-mail from my agency telling me they were going to call me with my update. I was worried it was bad news but I wanted to continue to pray and have faith. My husband and I prayed in the kitchen together and then the phone rang.
Gabbie's birth mother came into GC last week and signed her birth certificate. I want to praise God for my agency and the extra help we hired, both of these organizations have been a blessing.

My prayers continue to be with Gabbie's birthmother who is so strong and full of courage. This is evident for reasons I cannot discuss on this forum. Just know, that she is an amazing mother to Gabbie for all she has done. She has a big part of my heart.

It looks like we can be back in PGN in a week or two!!!!!!!

Praise God for all of your prayers. He heard our cry for help and He has moved "the mountain".

Jennifer

Jennifer, that is GREAT news. COngrats to you and I hope that Gabbie is home very soon.

I wish the best for her bmom as well. Birth mom's are such a big part of our lives. I think about Patrick's bmom often.

Good luck to you! I hope the remainder of the process goes smoothly!!
