Baby in the Inbox!!!

 Today started like any other day!  Checking the email!  Nothing there so I hit refresh again and again!!!  Still NOTHING!  So off to the grocery store I went!  I stoppped at the gas station 2 miles from home to fill up!  The email alert on my phone rang, it said Admin: Adoption Referral.  I almost passed out!   OH MY!!!  First.....stop the gas pump---whew--glad I used my credit card, because I wouldn't have remembered to pay!  Then off to find Tim!  I knew he was at his parents this morning!!  Tim doesn't get email on his phone so I was the ONLY one who knew!!!   I didn't look at the picture though until I found Tim!!   The 15 minute drive to his parents was the LONGEST ever!
I walked into Grandma and Grandpa Bogard's house where Tim was and shouted "ITS A GIRL"  Everyone was shocked and super excited!!!  Tim and I then scrolled to the bottom of the email and saw the most beautiful baby!!!!  She is just perfect!!!  Tears were flowing as Daddy  read the referral info!    We text the boys and then everyone else!!!  The phone calls and text started coming in!!  We are very blessed to have the support we do!  Momma put a teaser on facebook, but Ava didn't know yet so we couldn't tell about the referral yet!
We waited as long as Momma could stand it and went to tell Ava at preschoool!!  We told Ava and all her friends in class that Ava is a big sister!!!!  Ava's little hand went to her mouth as she gasped!!  :)  All the kids gathered around and looked at the picture!!!  Thanks Miss Kelley and Miss Lezlie for letting us interrupt your class!!  What a special day for Ava!
in case you wondered I never made it to the grocery store!!
We are blessed beyond words to be able to be this little girls parents!  Thanks to God and to a brave birth Mother for a wonder gift!
