Physicals

We both had to have physicals AGAIN for the new adoption. Something amazing happened when I made the appointments. I had called in February to see when the earliest appointments were going to be. They were scheduling appointments for mid-April. When I called a couple weeks later, I was told the earliest available appointment was mid-May! The plan is to get the Home Study and Profile done by the end of May.
So I went ahead with making the appointments. She asked when our last ones were. I told her that they were in December of 2007, but that we were doing this for an adoption, so whether or not insurance covered it didn’t really matter. It was something we had to do. So she went to checking for available appointment. The first one she found was April 16th. The only thing was that it was an afternoon appointment. What that meant was that the lab work would have to be done at a separate time, instead of being done back to back with the appointment. Not a big deal. Daniel has actually told me that the 16th would be perfect for him. And then she had another appointment just like that one the next Thursday for me. I don't know what happened to the only ones being in mid-May. And I was amazed to hear HER volunteer April 16th - I had said nothing yet about a desired day.

So it worked out perfectly. God is amazing the way that he has just made every step of these adoptions so smooth, so full of little miracles. This new adoption being no exception.

Our physical appointments went well, too. The lab work was done so fast. The doctor and all the nurses were so excited to hear about our story. Even the nurse that was drawing the blood talked to both of us about how she was adopted and how special it was to her. They worked with us and helped us out so much. And we got all the forms filled out so easily! Oh, and we each are very healthy!
