An easy way to keep friends and family updated on our adoption process.
The Search Begins
tfotorny | May 16, 2008 07:55
We emailed a list of potential children to our adoption agency and she is inquiring about them. She hasn't heard anything yet but promises to let us know as soon as she does. We know that God has our daughter set aside for us and that He will lead us to her. Please pray with us that God will lead us to the daughter He wants us to have, and that He will reveal her to us. We are so excited to get to this point of being able to search for her. We hope to find her soon although God's timing is not always our timing but His timing is what's best for us. We are trusting Him to work out all the details and may He receive the glory through this journey we are on.

Getting Ready
tfotorny | May 10, 2008 17:33
Today we bought a dresser for her room. We got a really good deal on it -- it was a display model and the store was going to discontinue selling that brand of furniture. There wasn't any marks on it --it's in perfect shape -- and the good news is --- it's already put together!! We got it at just a little over half the original price. So we were pleased with the deal. This is exciting to be getting stuff for her. I'd have the dresser filled with clothes by now, but since we don't know who she is yet or her age, I can't buy clothes yet. We do want to paint her room before she comes but we're going to wait to find out her favorite color, etc. Today the boys and I started going through toys to re-organize, getting rid of old stuff, etc. We're also starting to work on re-doing the boys room. It's going to be quite a process but we're trying to do a little bit each day. I'm also working on a list for the adoption agency of kids we want specific details about. Monday morning we should hopefully officially begin searching!

Another Step Closer
tfotorny | May 09, 2008 11:22
Last night we emailed our home study report back to the social worker with just a few minor corrections. Tonight we will sign a paper stating that we approve of our home study report. I'll mail the signed paper out tomorrow morning. In the next few days, the social worker will email the report and mail four signed copies to our local adoption agency. Once that happens -- we can begin looking for our daughter!! We will be able to inquire about specific details about children and start the matching process!!!!
