Heard back from pediatrician

I kinda expected this...they want more pictures and more information.   They see encouraging things but they want to have a better understanding.  I don't want to write anything else because that would be revealing too much of their medical history.  But they are wise doctors.  So, trusting God will guide.  I was already looking at airfares and talking about a good time to go, and will still do so preparing for good news.

For those who may not understand, when you adopt internationally, the parents fill out a Special Needs form, this form has all the conditions you can accept as a family. I've posted about this before.   Chris and I prayerfully went over this form, and also with an International Pediatrician and we discussed what each condition would mean as far as what the child would need from us.  It was a very difficult form to fill out.

We actually filled out this form twice.  (The 2nd time was when we hired a pediatrician.).  I was amazed at how the form changed from the 1st one to the 2nd one.   Some things we had as yes, we put no.  and vice versa.  It is so good to know.

it is very common for adoptive parents to ask for more information from the country, once a family gets a referral and after discussing what is given with a pediatrician.  As we wait for more information on these girls, I'm envisioning myself having a lot of fun with these girls and mothering them, but I'm guarded as we follow the information gathering process.
