Getting the Good News!!

Weldon and I have had the feeling that there is another baby coming to our family for a few months now. We had no idea how we would go about doing this. So, we went to a fertility specialist and, very reluctantly on my part, we decided to start that process all over again. Surprisingly we found out that there is a surgery I can get that will up the chances of getting pregnant. I have a heart shaped uterus and I also have polysistic ovarian syndrome. It's pretty funny in my opinion after all these years that we are just finding out exactly what's going on after always being told that nothing is wrong. It just goes to show that a 3rd opinion would've been good back then, but we had no doubt in our minds that adoption was the road we should take. And obviously, things have worked out perfectly because now we have Jade. Anyway, I just couldn't feel good about getting this surgery done or doing anything at all to try to get pregnant. Weldon and I debated about this and adopting again for months and we just couldn't decide what to do and we were starting to get discouraged.
Then, one day (the first day I was in Maine) Jade's birth-grandfather walked into the barbershop. He was asking Weldon if we had gotten that surgery done yet. Weldon said no, that we can't decide what to do. Then Dave said, well, how about a baby in 7 months? Weldon was floored!! He found out that Jade's birth mother is pregnant and has decided to place the baby for adoption with us!! Weldon told him that we would love to adopt the baby. They said we'll be in touch and then Weldon called me to tell me the news. I was eating a huge ice cream cone when he called and told me the news. I cried! I cried for Jade's birth mother because she is experiencing this again and I cried for us because, in one small moment it was like everything fell into place, and all of our questions had been answered. The answer we were getting was to do nothing! I am still amazed as everything is sinking in still. I can see the hand of God at work in my life everywhere I look. These things are teaching me to have more faith and trust in Him. While I am deeply pained for the pain that Jade's birth family is experiencing and will experience, I am overjoyed that we are getting another Daughter! She is about 20 weeks along and the date is March 18th!
