We finally did it...Dan brought our application and fee money into our local agency and got the ball officially rolling for our adoption....aahhh!!! It doesn't sound like a big deal. It's just starting the homestudy. But it has taken us many long months of prayer and discussion... to try to figure out what direction God was calling us. Now its just time to take the first step and see what He does from there!
Dan thought it was no big deal...that he'd get really excited when the homestudy is done...I, on the other hand, can relate to this T-Shirt. We may not be "expecting" yet...but its like we're really trying now :)
Not just talkin' about it...doing it.
We're using an agency that several friends have used and who has a social worker that is known to be really great. So...I'm getting excited! Nervous... but excited!
Congrats! Look forward to hearing more news as it develops.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Andrea...I'll keep you posted if you keep me posted on when the little girl makes an appearance :)
DeleteIsn't it such a wonderful feeling! My husband is also more reserved with his excitment. I, on the other hand, can't help but want to jump up and down with each step of progress we make. Congratulations, you are now officially IN THE PROCESS of adopting! Welcome to my world! lol
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michelle...so glad to finally be joining "your world" :) And very blessed to have found you :) You should have heard me talking to Dan after you emailed me the little "Heads up...things to be aware of" email...I was telling him how awesome you are- seriously, that was good info. to know! Your awesome!
