Our homestudy is finally officially completed!! We had to wait this last month for one person to turn in a form for it to be official. It is really hard waiting for someone else to complete something for you that is so important! So now whenever a birth mother is looking for a family, if our adoption worker thinks we would be a good fit, our family Shutterfly book gets shown to them and we are in the running to be chosen! This also means we need to be ready at any moment because the birth mother could be at any point in her pregnancy, or even have delivered already.
Along those lines...our case worker is already showing our book to someone tomorrow!! And she is due this month!!! I am shaking with excitement! Now, this doesn't mean we will be chosen, but we are pretty awesome so who knows.
There are some things that would have to fall into place. If she chooses us we would need $3000 ASAP. She is in Ohio and they require that money to help with her living expenses. She may or may not use it, but I think we have to pay it either way (still a little unclear on that). So, if you have ever considered donating to our fund now would be a great time! You can do that through paypal (I believe whether you have a paypal account or not) right here on this page. I will now, also, be beginning the process of applying for grants.
Please pray for us as we begin the hardest part of this journey, waiting to be chosen. Please pray for our hearts if we are not chosen this time or any other times. Thank you friends!!
