Well, sorry we haven't updated for a while but we have sort of been on hold for the last few months. As I said in our last post, we were getting ready to start the foster-to-adopt training classes. Well we never did get a chance to start for a few reasons. I was going to start them without Todd, but my car wouldn't start and I missed the first class. Something else happened (I don't remember) and I missed the second class. Then we had a conflict with Todd's work schedule. We were told that he would be able to be home for the Saturday classes, but when it came down to it, they made him leave on Saturday afternoon and he would have missed the class. So we haven't been moving forward at all.
Last week, I was looking on the Christian Children's Home (CCH) website to see when their next foster-to-adopt classes started again, since no one has gotten back with me yet. I happened to stumble upon something that said they have a private infant adoption program. I was so excited! I knew they had an adoption program (without having to foster first), but I didn't know that adopting privately and being able to choose just an infant was an option.I sent an email right away to the person in charge of that. Surprisingly she got back with me the same day. She sent me some information and we set up a meeting with her for this coming Friday at 3:00 so she can answer any of our questions and talk to us a little bit more about the program. We are so excited! Maybe God didn't have "public adoption" in His plans for us at all. Maybe He only led us in that direction so we would discover this program at CCH. I don't know, but we are praying that this might be what He has in mind for us, and if it's still not it, that He will light the way and guide us to where His plans are taking us.
We appreciate all your prayers as we continue down this long, frustrating, and emotional road to add a child to our family!
