The most difficult part of this journey of adoption is waiting. I feel like we have been waiting to get started then we hurry up and then we wait again. Of course once we reach the point of waiting again it means that we have accomplished something too. Well anyways, so much has happened since I last posted.
We had our home study visit and that went very well. We are so lucky to have a social worker who is so down to earth and understands all of our worries and excitement. Good news is, WE GOT APPROVED! Bad news is, now we just wait.
So in the meantime we are planning so many events to keep us busy over the months while we wait. Who knows, we could be matched tomorrow and we could be matched next year. So for now, we wait and we try to raise the money that we will need to bring our baby home. We have already paid $1,950 for our home study and will be signing a check for $1,500 to be shown to birth moms in the next couple of weeks. From there we just wait. And fundraise. Did I mention we need to fundraise?
In May we are going to host an ice cream social and in June we will have a tag sale. In July we will have a spaghetti supper and in August we will have another tag sale. Fingers crossed that we get chosen by a birth mom before Christmas!
