Heart OMG DH wants to adopt another child.....

I am crying my eyes out. For months I was asking DH about adopting a boy and he kept saying no...so today DH came home for lunch today and Giuseppa was in his arms and she was smooching on her Daddy and he turned to me and said...how about another one!!! Talk about jumping for joy. We plan on waiting to see what happens after the compliance with the Hague to see if we will be adopting from Guatemala and also to see where we stand with finances. Please GOD grant me a son soon.
