Oh how wonderful to have the mountain of paperwork to get certified behind us! So here is our status. Monstrously colossal pile of paperwork (of which made me want to cry at first)...check! Individual interviews...check! Adoption Academy...one big fat check! Our home evaluation and couple interview is scheduled for Thursday then our application is off to the courts to get certified. Apparently we're very lucky because our county is pretty quick on the return. So, we could be certified in two weeks!! Then our profile will go up on itsaboutlove.org and we will start flooding every body's email with our fliers. Just get ready to help us find our baby and birth family.
Yesterday we attended the adoption academy in Mesa. It was cold and rainy as we went into the church building it was held at. Somehow that made the day even better. I love the rain. Anyway, there were probably about 15 other couples in attendance and we heard from other adoptive couples, an adoption attorney, and some birth mothers. It was so wonderful. I especially loved hearing from the birth mothers. What amazing women. I can't wait to meet our birth mother and to be able to witness that unselfish love first hand.
Well, I need to prepare my primary lesson and maybe take a nap before church (I woke up at 3:00 this morning and I don't know why because I LOVE my sleep.) Tune in later to find out what happens to little Bonnie and David at their home evaluation!
