Why We're Here...

I guess I should explain why we're here. Andy & I have tried for 4 years to conceive, but Father has had other plans for our lives. We recently confirmed, what we expected after the first month of trying unsuccessfully to get pregnant, that we will more than likely never be able to have natural born children. Even with medical assistance, our chances are less than 1%.
Father is so merciful to us, tho. He has given both of us a heart for orphans and has laid adopting on our lives. God calls us all throughout scripture to take care of widows and orphans. That's His heart. And we are honored to join Him where His heart is.
Well, here we go: Day 1 out of.....?
I'm not much of a writer, so this will probably be terrible at best. But I was encouraged to journal our journey, and so I try.

We're trying to decide on names. It's not going so hot. I think our poor child will end up with like 15, since I can't decide which I like better. And as far as Andy's concerned... I am this close to removing him from the baby naming process altogether. ;) (Just teasing, baby)

All for now, we'll see how inspired I get later.....
