Hi All sorry it's been so long. I started this blog and kinda forgot about it to be honest. But since we have decided to adopt from Africa I wanted to keep a record of our journey to look back on.
We have just signed on with an adoption agency and home study agency. Our home study first interview will be very soon( as soon as I drop off our Bios to them) We are excited to finally start the process. Our agency tells us it should be between 6-8 months. We are going to view the waiting children lists first instead of them sending us a reference. We can do this because we are completely open to boy or girl just want between ages 2 yrs and 7 years. The agency told me there are lots of children matching those ages so we will view the list once our home study is completed and turned in.
When we were hanging the kid's stockings on the fireplace my wonderful husband turned to me and said this time next year we'll be hanging one more. It really hit home and made it real. God has put a fire in my heart for orphans that I always knew was there but now I feel called to actually follow through with it. please pray for us. It's going to be a long road and I'm not the best at waiting.
