We got THE call this morning! Our girl is gorgeous! She is so perfect, I cannot even tell you! She just turned seven and no, she doesn’t have all her baby teeth, but I’m OK with that. The only measurements we have are a year old, so we asked for new sizes! I think all the size 5 clothes might work! Bonus! And her name is beautiful…. and it means light. Perfect.
I’m exhausted and thrilled and teary and overjoyed and overwhelmed and giddy and I keep staring at this darling little face on the computer screen!

hi!
CONGRATS!!!
i’ve been following ur blog. we are also adopting from colombia. we requested a 6 y/o. found out they recently deleted the list and we will be waiting for 2-3 yrs! i was just wondering how long did you have to wait before you received a referral. if u dont mind, and if u have time, i know ur probably crazy busy, will u email me. thanks!

Hi Wendi! We were approved in Feb. 2008, so our wait for the referral was 33 months. A LONG time. I hadn’t heard about the deleted list. Oh my word! I’m sure I should be crazy busy, but I’m not actually sure what I should be doing…… :o) The calm before the storm, I’m sure! Best wishes as you wait.

Felicitaciones! What great news for your family! I hope that USCIS process will go quickly and you can have Nora home before Christmas.
