My brother, Tommie, informed me that it was time for a blog update, so here it is! Does anybody even read this?? I started this blog with the intentions of using it solely for our adoption (and all things related) and on that note we really don't have any new news. When we started our adoption journey we had every intention of zooming thru every step of the process; however, we have really taken it slow, completely at our own pace.
Since finishing up our Home Study classes last May...or was it April?...anyway, we have really taken our time with completing the next steps. No reason really...other than God's timing is perfect. As we seek Him every step of this journey, I know all the details will come together according to His plan. If He wanted us to have everything together already, then we would! I like visiting the Bethany website and seeing couples from our classes go up on the adoptive couples page. I can't wait for ours to be up there!
We are planning on mailing in the rest of our paperwork by this Friday. Following that, we'll have a couple of interviews, as well as a visit to our home, plus the completion of our profile (what birth parents receive to choose a family).
All that being said, I would like to kick it into high gear because I got a phonecall today asking if I would be a long-term sub for a teacher going out on maternity leave from September thru December! Once that starts, I'll be more than busy once again! It will be nice if we are on the "waiting" list by September so that I can just focus on the teaching position. I'm excited about it because I will have several students from my class I taught last year. Fun!
So...maybe there will be more updates sooner rather than later now!
Yes, you do have a reader out there. Looking forward to following along this adoption process with you. Long term sub sounds good. About time for me to start subbing again too. Ansley often reminds me that I neeed to update my blog more often too. Have a blessed Sunday.
