THE Call, take 2

On April 3rd we got a call on our home phone meaning it was one of three people; another parent from Honey's class (I'm the room parent), my mom, or our social worker.  It was Ms P! I couldn't believe it. It was around 8 pm so I really wasn't expecting it to be her. She asked how I was. I answered with a linger wanting more information of why she was calling me. She went on to say that we were chosen. She gave me all of the information she was given but left a lot of her notes at work.  She said we were chosen because the birth mom could tell I was loud and the Hubs was quiet. That is the same with birth mom and dad. I'm trying not to get too excited. We still have a couple of months for her to change her mind. And the birth. Oh this is going to be hard. I am holding on to the fact that BM wanted us to know she chose us right away. Ms P got her to hold off until yesterday when she was supposed to have her dr's visit. The dr had to reschedule and BM wanted us to know regardless. Once we say yes to a child we are "off the market" to any other potential BP's. That sounds so strange to say. Like buying a house.  We don't know if our baby is a boy or girl. I feel like it's a girl. We are really excited. We are really cautious. We are really nervous.

I was trying to wait to tell anyone until after we met, but I am too excited
