Exciting news...
Over the past few weeks, I have been having some feelings about our adoption. I've been dreaming of being placed with a baby. I've been seeing posts about God working his ways in the background that will bring us joy and happiness. I even told my mother in law a few weeks ago that I felt like we would hear about our waitlist status in February.
Coley and I are SO excited to announce that we have been removed from the waiting list and have officially moved to the preliminary home study stage of our adoption process!
This means that we are working on paperwork that is required (background checks, CPR, etc) before actually having a home study case worker in our home. Our next steps are to complete various forms and checks that will allow the agency to see that we are going to be amazing parents.
We are nervous, though, because the home study is the first major expense in this adoption process. We are looking at costs for background checks, classes, workshops, trainings, general paperwork costs, etc in addition to the cost of the actual home study. We will begin sharing fundraisers soon if you are interested in supporting us that way as well.
We are so thankful for all of the support thus far, but we still have a long road ahead of us! We are overwhelmed and overjoyed with this next step! Please keep us in your prayers!
