A
couple weeks ago we mailed our adoption profile book to the agency. She said she
thought it was a really good book and that it shows a lot about us and our
families. It took a lot of work so I'm thankful
she thought it was good!

| Our Profile Book |
This
past Wednesday we mailed our background checks to the agency and today we
received our official letter of approval!! We are now what the adoption
community calls "Paper Pregnant"!!
This means that all the paper work has been completed
and we are just waiting for a match! The agency will show our profile book to
birth parents and it is up to the birth parents to choose us. Our home study
will be valid for one year. If we are not matched within that year we will have
to pay a fee for the home study to be updated. So our
prayer is that we get matched within that year! We ask that you continue to pray
with us, for our future child and their birth mother.
We are
so excited to be this far in the adoption. We could not have made it this far
without the help of family and friends and the lord! We continue to be blessed
each day with this opportunity the lord has given us and cannot wait to share
our lives with a child in the future.
