Saturday's yard sale was great, as soon as I put the $$$ in the bank I will transfer it to our You Caring website and you'll be able to see how much we've raised so far. Thank you everyone for your donations and continued support!
On Monday I was given some information about a non-profit organization that helps pregnant women and does some adoptions as well. I spoke with them and sent our profile book and contact information to them. Their main focus is to minister to these women, house them, educate them during their pregnancy and afterwards. They assist them in getting jobs and places of their own. Every once in a while though some of the women choose adoption and that is where our profile book comes in. This would be a much less expensive adoption if we were chosen through them.
We have been waiting a few months now. I don't find myself always wondering if it'll be the agency on the other line when the phone rings anymore. I guess that means I'm less anxious but at the same time that anxiousness is what keeps you moving and excited. I wouldn't say I feel discouraged but the more time passes and we don't hear from the agencies, I find myself less focused on bringing home our baby. I wonder if anyone in Florida has looked through our profile book? However I just can't call asking that every week, that is not how this works. We should probably join an adoption support group but there are so many things Joe and I should be doing that I'm not sure when that will happen.
Anyhow, we are still waiting patiently and I guess that maybe after my Dad visits in a few weeks that Joe and I should start working on our spare room and making it into a nursery.
