What called us to elijah..... and Eastern Europe?

Adopting Elijah started where the last journey ended. In December of 2014 I inquired about out a little one year old who was living in an orphanage in Eastern Europe. I found him on a photo list on Reece's Rainbow, which I will talk a whole lot more in another post, and I inquired about him. For the month of December we didn't hear a word, so I thought another family was moving forward with adopting him.  So within that month with thought we would want to do foster to adopt within the state, but we weren't sure. So it all happened on January 3rd 2015, I called the DCF office to see if they had received our file, since it was mailed the month before. She informed me that she had not received it but she will track it down. As soon as colleen hung up the telephone, she had an email, and in that email contained Elijah's file.  She knew this was a sign, and that she should follow it. James felt the same way, we knew Elijah is our son just born in a different country, so we started our adoption journey to bring him home.
