Lately Bennett has been into asking us to make things out of playdough... He will ask for "tractor" or "pizza" (which he pretends to eat and gets in his teeth) But last night we were playing and he said "Make Baby" I had to laugh out loud... Oh Bennett, if it was only that easy...
Since Bennett was 6 months old we have been thinking and hoping for a little brother or sister for him. Because it wasn't easy for us the first time we decided to check into other options. I immediately thought Foster-to-adopt was a great back-up plan... and after many classes, meetings and soul searching we decided to apply and see what happens. All along the way we were trying almost anything to make that sibling the Ol' fashion way... and as much fun as that is... it just wasnt working for us.
The path to Foster to Adoption was going a little slower than we had expected but we were just hopeful that what was meant to be would happen and we didnt know if that would be getting pregnant or getting an adoption going...
This week after some medical and emotional ends of the rope... we decided that our next step was not going to be getting pregnant we would have to have another route.
The very next morning I got a call that our Adoption home study was OFFICIAL and now we are just waiting for a placement! I suddenly know for sure this is absolutely meant to be for us. We have been working on it for almost a year and we are so excited it is finally here. We know there is a little soul out there waiting to meet us! And we can't wait to meet them!! So here's to waiting for that call!
Because you have to actually prepare a room before getting licensed, we painted this room, bought this crib and sewed the curtains... "If you build it, they will come"...
