Growing our Family Through Adoption: It's time...

It's time...

I talked with the owner of our adoption agency the other day. The average wait for a baby is currently 9-24 months. So, Nick and I think it's time to update our profile book and start the wait for #2. We'd like our kids about 2 years apart, so we'll see how it goes!!

I'll try to get some new pictures of Essie posted this week!! I have a really cute video of her, but can't get it to upload. I'll keep trying!!

The Gift of Adoption

We truly believe adoption is God's answer to our prayers and our desire to have a family.....

To anyone looking down the same road we are on....may God bless you in this journey. Knowing where to begin is difficult - we would highly recommend calling your local hospitals or an adoption agency to see if there are informational classes available. It has been the most valuable resource for us - we've met so many people who have experienced the highs and lows that come with this process. Share your journey with those around you - let people know you are beginning the process of adopting a child. You will be amazed how many people are adopted. We live in a small community and I don't think we've told a single person here who didn't say, "Oh, so-and-so's children are adopted," or "we adopted one of our kids." You can find other great resources through the links posted above.

I'll keep this updated as often as possible. I'll even see if I can get Nick to post now and again!!
