An ordinary day, until...

Approximately 3:30 eastern time, when Natalie made the infamous call.

Here is how it went.
I was out running errands while Micah was in preschool and i decided to go to Starbucks on my way to go get him. So, I am sitting at the window waiting when the phone rings. I open my phone, and see UNKNOWN. I of course think all in two seconds,"Natalie, no it can't be. I have had to many of these and they are never her." But as I am saying hello and she is saying "This is Natalie," the man at the window with my coffee is trying to give it to me and tell me if I don't like it I can get something else. I give him a BIG smile and pull away.

So, after much squealing and laughter and a little info. on Isaac, I realize she is calling on the day Trevor doesn't come home until 10pm ish. What am I going to do. I tell her, I will do everything I can to get us together. I call Trevor, tell him and shock abounded. He could not believe it was finally happening. Me either.

We decided to wait until 5pm for Natalie to call me back and that I would go through the info with her (minus pics.) on my own and then we would wait and open the pictures when we were all together later that night. We wanted us all three to be together when we saw Isaac for the first time. I get off the phone with her, hop in the car take Micah to a friends house, pick up another friend and drive to Durham(where my husband is. He had the Young Professionals bi-weekly gathering). We stayed through the announcements and drove home. It was 9pm ish by the time we were all home and could open our email and see our precious boy. And boy is he precious.

Natalie said it would probably be 3-4wks before we hear about a court date. So, we are buckling up for another wait. She said it could be 2+ months before he is home. Hey, what is 8-10 weeks when you have been waiting as long as we have. We trust God, His timing and His perfect will for our family. What more could I ever ask for.
