Just wanted to give you all a quick update on the baby my son & his wife are hoping to adopt. Here's a clue: I just went to the store & added all the baby boy kits I could find to my wish list!
Yep, we just found out it's going to be a boy!! Of course, none of us would have cared either way - but it just makes it seem even more real than before. We've been looking forward to this for soooooo long . . . Bill & Lara have even had names picked out since before they were married 14 years ago. So the little guy's name will be Benjamin Bradley Pounds & we'll call him Ben.
Anyway, as with any adoption, we can't get our hopes up TOO much - there are still four months left until he's born & then the waiting time after that. But, still, with every day that passes, we are getting more & more excited!!
So, if you'd please keep the prayers coming that his mom doesn't change her mind, I (plus our entire family) would be ever so grateful!! (I don't see a "begging" icon, but if there was one it would be inserted right here!)
