Ben and I are back onto the road in our adoption journey. It took a major sidetrack last year when God pulled our hearts back from the international adoption we were planning. Then once we started to get into the domestic side of things, and specifically a California fos-adopt program, we learned something.
Social workers don't like lakes. Especially ones on your apartment complex property that don't involve fences.
So we looked for a house. We didn't find the right house for the right (low) price. So we found a rental house. And FINALLY, this week, we're moving!
Now on to the unpacking. Well, not quite yet. It's Wednesday night and there will be another full day of packing tomorrow, followed by moving and unpacking on Friday and much more on Saturday. Then, in three weeks one of the reps from our agency will be coming over for our first home inspection.
In the meantime- paperwork, doctor's appointments (which may mean more blood drawn, yick), trips to the DMV, background checks... woo-hoo. Paper pregnant again. Back on the rollercoaster we go.
There's also a court date for our Maybe Baby next week, so we're hoping to confirm the time and attend. We've only met a couple of extended family members, so keep us in your prayers.
