THE CALL

Today was finally the day of acceptance from Hope. See we had been on pins and needles waiting on the "committee" to meet to decide if we were going to be the ones to get Ning Fu Hong. I was told that they would meet on Monday and then that my agency would notify me on Tuesday between 9am-12pm. Well here we are at Disney World trying to have a great vacation not thinking about the outcome. Needless to say,we decided to skip the parks today to wait on the final word from our agency. We took to boys swimming at 10am just to give me something else to try to focus on. Well right about noon, I couldn't stand it anymore and I started calling the agency directly. They said no news yet :( I called about every 30 minutes, and still nothing. Finally we decided to leave the campground and go out for lunch.

We went to a mexican restaurant in Disney for lunch. Finally, while waiting for the food, my cell rang! I quickly answered it and with a simple, Donna I have the best news for you! We GOT HER!! Of course, I started crying like a baby (or new mom), and had to ask the agency to give me a moment to think. Once my emotions were more in check, I asked all the details of now how do we get her home.

It was a long day to wait for the CALL, but once we had it the day flew by as we were calling everyone we knew to announce our newest addition to the family. Here she is Ning Fu Hong, soon to be Miss Shelby Ann Fuhong Straight!!
