Adoption Update

My husband and I have been pursuing adoption fairly actively since for almost a year. Along the way we have seen God answer some prayers in neat ways. (like making room for us on a plane and providing money for us). But we are still waiting. We did, however, find out that right now we are the only family in the adoption agency we are working with that can adopt. We know it won't be that way for long, but for right now we are the only option. The state we are going through just made an adoption law that all adoptive parent need to have FBI clearance. The state we reside in already had us do this, so we are all clear in that regard. We got an email today from the agency saying that they received the info and that they currently have one family (us) that can adopt. Now, since we are out of state, we may not be as desirable with some birth moms, but if we are the only option, we just might be more so than before. Ahh...we will have to wait on God and see if He pulls a power play. :o)

Neat! It will be exciting to find out what happens!

So I forgot to tell you, I had a dream the other week that you adopted your girl while we were out of town for a few days...like we came back and it was like "oh yeah, things moved faster then we thought they would and we forgot to tell you" kind of thing. I was happy things moved fast, but disappointed at being so out of the loop.

So don't go adopting any kids and let us know after the fact...

Don't worry, we won't adopt any kids without letting you in on it as soon as possible. I mean, if we have to take off even in just a couple hours, I imagine we would call on the way. :o)
