I'm pretty sure I didn't know you were pregnant...or I forgot, forgive me, if that is the case! We're planning on fundraising and I'm frantically working behind the scenes sewing so I can re-open my Etsy shop. (I had to close it during my sickness) Right now, the most important thing is to pray for us! Pray over our paperwork and that God would provide....because He is going to have to this financially. It's one of those things that makes no sense on paper....we definitely don't have $30,000 sitting around! Ok, first, Congratulations!

I'm keeping up with your journey as I feel it's so similar to mine (planned to begin adoption paperwork when the husband returns in Sept. only to have to tell him 6 weeks after he left that we're pregnant... and we still want to adopt!). It feels very overwhelming at times, with this being our first and knowing how much that will change things. Can't wait to hear more as you continue on this journey! And do be sure to let us all know how we can help! I’m so glad to hear this went well!

Two adoptions later...I'm convinced of that. Rejoicing with you that you've made major progress in the process....I know....KNOW...how GREAT that feels! Really happy for you... :) Boy does this bring back a flood of memories…our kids gave “incredible” answers to all the homestudy questions…have no clue how we passed
