We are so excited about starting the adoption process. We are in the beginning stages of the process. We have turned in our application to American World Adoption Agency and are awaiting the approval to move forward. We really appreciate all the prayers from our family and friends. We can't wait to bring a child (or two!) into our family.
For as long as I can remember Brad and I have talked about adopting. We didn't know when or from where, but it has been something that has been on our hearts for a long time. At the end of summer we decided we would start the process soon. We got a slow start during tennis and volleyball season, but after our seasons were over, we started looking into our adoption options (and there are too many). We also have talked to some friends that have gone through the adoption process and received some valuable advice.
When Brad started doing some research this past fall he kept telling me that he was drawn to Ethiopia. After doing some of my own research, and lots of praying, we have decided to adopt from Ethiopia. God has truly blessed our lives and we are excited to share our lives and God's love with a child. We plan to update this blog with our progress and news as we go on this journey. We rest assured that God will be with us each step of the way!
