guess what? the call finally came this morning! our dossier has arrived at los pisingos! my phone rang showing a "218" number at about 10:30 as i was driving from downtown minneapolis to another meeting in bloomington. whenever i see "218" i have to stop and think who it might be. my heart skipped a beat as i realized it could be bettina...and it was her! she said that our dossier had been delivered to LP and that means we could officially get a referral call anytime! YIPPEE! great news for an otherwise gloomy & dreary day. i will keep you posted as we learn more. :)
happy monday everyone!

Dream a Little Dream
sorry for the delays in blogging...i've been thinking about posting, but when you have no news to report it becomes difficult to think about what to write about. i wish i could write something like, 'we go the call! our dossier is now at los pisingos', but for some reason it's not quite time. i keep reminding myself that we must be patient because our child isn't quite ready for us...God has a plan for everything, right? heath keeps mentioning 'christmas in colombia' so maybe he'll be right. it certainly wouldn't be a bad thing to escape a minnesota winter for a couple months!
last night i actually dreamt that i was in colombia and was walking through the orphanage. there were little kids of all ages everywhere. some were coming up to me, asking me to play games with them and some just kept watching me walk around. at one point, a bunch of us got on an airplane to fly somewhere else. again, there were little colombian children all around me. i was getting settled into my seat when all of a sudden an alarm went off...unfortunately, that meant it was time to get up for work! it was a comforting dream and something to keep me positive during this lonnng wait. our little guy or girl will be here before we know it. just think, a year ago at this time i was just getting ready for my knee surgery! time does fly when you're having fun! :)
couple of side notes unrelated to the adoption:
-heath is off to north carolina early sunday morning for a week of training for work. his company has now officially merged with RJR and he is experiencing 'corporate america'...let's just say it's been an 'interesting' transition for him!
-i won a 19" LCD flat screen tv at a golf tourney yesterday!
-melissa & i are heading to iowa city tomorrow morning for the big iowa/isu game - GO HAWKS!
happy fall!
