We are matched!

We had our match meeting today, and it was amazing.  We met with the BM, BF and the BM's mom.  I can't being to describe how perfect the match was.  The conversation was effortless and natural.  We have so much in common, and even look a lot alike.  It really felt like we were sitting across the table from the younger versions of ourselves.  I still can't believe this is happening.  We started waiting December 1, turned in our books the week before Christmas, were selected right after new year's and are now expecting a baby girl on March 1!  I am sure there is a lot more to say, but I think I am still absorbing everything that happened today.  I don't have enough words to describe the mix of joy, honor, excitement and anticipation that I am feeling right now.  We just feel so lucky to have been selected by such an amazing family.  DS turns two this weekend.  A baby sister is one heck of a birthday present. 

As a side note, I hope this gives hope to those of you who have been told that having a bio child and/or working will cause a longer wait.  In our case, the BM specifically sought out a family with a working mom and an older sibling (brother preferred) in the home.  So MayDay, and anyone else out there, don't count on a long wait.  Our story shows that you just never know :).
