Tonight Nate and I met with baby #2's birth mother, birth grandmother, and social workers. The meeting went perfectly. God was with us the entire time and we felt so much peace and joy throughout the night. So much in fact that before we left, Mariah told us that her and her mother officially, 100% chose us to parent her baby due in December. We are so overjoyed and now look forward to meeting again soon with Elyse and her extended family.
Other exciting news is that we may find out the gender since Mariah didn't want to find out in case she would have slipped it out while talking to us if we originally didn't want to know. Super thoughtful of her, right!?! So who knows, I maybe posting a post soon saying, it's a ....
Oh yeah, computer is still broken, but did make some posts using Nate's work computer this weekend I can publish throughout the week of Elyse :)

I've been waiting for this post! We were praying for you last night and are so glad that things went well!
We are so very blessed and incredibly thankful to be a part of what God, in all of His greatness, is doing in our lives and how He is weaving such a beautiful tapestry between two families that would likely of never crossed paths before.
Thank you Nate and Natalie for the opportunity to get to know you. It is very clear by your blog that you are surrounded by so much love and support about this adoption.
Thank you for being so loving and accepting of Mariah and not looking down on her situation. Thank yor seeing adoption as God's perfect plan for your lives and not something that you have to resort to as "second best." Thank you for being available to be a part of God's wonderful plan for Mariah's life.
Thank you all for supporting Nate and Natalie and for your prayers for baby.
With Love, Rande (birth g-ma)
Great!!! December is a great month, right Nate????? Waiting on another grandbaby to spoil.
