Adoption Support

Jenilyn-

Well, you'll never believe this but...I'm a mom!

Last Wednesday (11/16/11) we got a call that a birthmother had picked us and we picked up our baby girl on Friday (11/18/11)!

It was love at first sight and we have been in heaven ever since! It all happened so fast that we are still trying to figure everything out but could not feel more blessed.

Thanks for all of your help getting us started. We had just hired a girl to make a website for us so we will be putting that on hold until we are ready for baby #2! Hopefully we will get to use your services in the future!

"Thank you for all of your help and support and gentleness during this infertility journey. We are moving full steam ahead on adoption. I've started working on our dear birthmother letter, identified a lawyer, signed us up for 2 workshops (at the Cradle and Catholic Social Services) as well as been in contact with Lutheran Social Services. We've researched our adoption benefits at work, started an adoption folder, and begun copying documents. I also read that book you recommended and have requested several others. As you can tell, I like to plan and organize! Of course, I still have some anxiety that a birth mother will not select us, but try not to dwell on that too much.
Thank you again.
Best,
Angela"
