So I've been anxiously waiting to put these on here. After manipulation of the photos, i feel safe to add them :). It was like a big party to have the home study approved. I emailed our social worker at BCS to see the status of the approval at their agency, but have not heard anything yet. Makes me nervous, but I wouldn't see why one agency would approve and not another. I know I have no reason to be nervous, but this is big, bigger than anything I've ever done in my life. Waiting 9 years to have a baby. Start our family. This is big! It's like a day I've dreamed of. I've always wanted to adopt since I was about 12. But I had dreams at the time to adopt from Guatemala. I always wanted to have a dark hair, tanned skinned baby, and at the time I thought Guatemala was my only option. But also at the time I was watching adoption stories on the discovery channel. In all fairness, my eyes and heart were driven to adopt a child from the US a few years back. I'm so glad hubs and I are going down this path to our family. I feel it makes us stronger and have a type of love no one else can or will experience. I cherish this love. We don't know our child yet, but I feel like I do.
Last night I had a dream that we were being placed with a baby girl and the mother and I got along great. We were sitting there talking about names and she loved the name we had chosen. We asked her to choose the middle name. It was a pleasant experience in my dreams, I hope and pray that when this time does come, it will be just as pleasant. I pray almost every night for our birth family and our child, praying for peace with their decision, their health, and prosperity.
OK, i don't know why this one is sideways...it's the right way when I updated it...ugh! Sorry.
Until next time...
