So recently I made a new friend. I felt like a little kid going over and saying “Hi my name is Esther”. I met Kelly through another friend when I read about her adoption fundraiser. She has a blog about her adoption process also, called A Little Bit of Pink. I messaged Kelly and asked […]
Now that we are off the waiting list, I feel like I have lots of homework. I printed all the forms the other day that we have to fill out for our home study and it was about an inch thick. Luckily not all of it has to be filled out by us. We had […]
    The wait is definitely not over. But the first “trimester” of this paper pregnancy is done. We are off the waiting list and we are dropping off our application tomorrow. So what happens next you may ask? First the background checks. Second all applicants are required to complete twelve hours of training provided by […]
For those of you who don’t know, the adoption process is a waiting game. Much like pregnancy, you never know what will happen and no two adoptions are the same. Often you will wait and it will seem like nothing is happening but behind the scenes God is working on your miracle. We are still […]

At the garage sale so many people were so encouraging about our adoption process. I met people who had adopted and others who knew the pain of not being able to get pregnant. But mostly we felt so loved and blessed to know that all these people wanted to help us make this journey to […]
Our Garage Sale Fundraiser was a huge success! Why ? First because we received so many donations from wonderful people. Second because a lot of you helped us get the word out via email, flyers, Facebook and word of mouth. Third because a lot of selfless, caring people helped us move the item to the […]
So our meeting with Bethany Christian Services last Saturday was very informative. We found out that they completed 24 domestic adoptions last year. They only match birth mothers up with adoptive parents once they are from 6-8 months pregnant. This helps them make an informed decision and also help the agency provide the counseling they […]
