A New Look
We are still in the midst of the adoption paperwork (I know it won’t be done until about a year after we get our child, as we will have to apply for pemanent residency/citizenship) and I have begun to wonder do they really want to know that much about me? I am really not that interesting.
Our most recent package from the adoption agency has about 10 questionaires/forms each ranging 1-3 pages long, most of them Jamie and I both have to fill out seperately. The one I filled out last took me 4 hours and ended up producing 7 pages of typed info. Now don’t get me wrong I know that they want to make sure we will make good parents and that they match the right baby to us and I honestly do appreciate it but it also seems like a lot. I really do feel sorry for the person who has to read it all.
I know it will totally be worth it in the end but right now it seems like a lot.
i’m really happy for you guy’s Kim. I’m excited to be a part of the process and pray with you both in this. Cheers.

Thanks Phil! We are so glad your part of this journey too.
So glad you are on your way to becoming adoptive parents. It may not be the same as giving birth (although paperwork can be pretty painful) but it is a wonderful experience, full of challenges. May the love for your little one begin to grow even now and may God bless your child to be and your plans to become a family.
