Happy Valentine's Day!

We hope you all have a day filled with Love.  Make sure that you pass it on!  We love because He first loved us.  Love how little Max (our goldendoodle) snuck into this picture.  :)


And make sure you check out where our shirts came from.  She's an adoptive mama too!  Sew cute!  :)

No or Not this one

On Thursday we heard that the 2 were not to be ours.  It was hard to hear, even though we had been trying to be prepared for the possibility.  The good news is that as of Thursday they have a family.  We are glad the wait is nearing an end for them.

So what now?  We are still on the list for a referral.  Our agency has done away with numbers, so we only know the month that they are working on giving referrals.  As of Friday, there were several new referrals, and those families all submitted their paperwork in August.  We submitted in November.  So, it looks like we have several more months of waiting for a referral in front of us.  Will we look at other children from the Waiting Child Process?  Not right now.  It was a difficult process, and the no was painful.  I think we will choose the wait for now.

Today, we had our last adoption parenting class.  One more step off the list!
