News
We have been looking at the RR site for some time now, I guess because in our hearts we new this was going to happen. I had dreams weeks ago and I posted on here about them. In my dream the children they tried to give us wasn't our Yana..... This week has been tough for us, me especially. I wrestled with myself all week. We have several choices in front of us, and I would think about all of them repeatedly. Then I thought maybe we should just give up. It would be easy and I wouldn't have this to worry about, but......I can't. All of the choices were the right ones, but what was best for us? I didn't know what to do or where to turn. I have talked to agencies and people all week, trying to figure out what was best. Then I woke up this morning and all I could think was~I can't let anyone else have them. Then I knew what the answer was. It's them. The region these two little girls are from allow multiple adoptions of unrelated children. We are approved for two by the USCIS. No brainer, but there is a catch. The agency is checking with the facilitator to see if the adoption of two for our family is possible. After talking with Andrea she wants to make sure it will be a for sure thing because it wouldn't be fair for us to hold up a child if they decide to say no. Then that child would lose valuable chances of finding a family. So, the agency will be talking with the facilitator and then talk with Andrea. We then will know how to proceed. Monday I will contact our hs agency to update our hs. We all know how that is. Then hopefully we will be able to commit to both of them. If not, we will commit to one and continue to fundraise for her and for the other little girl. I don't want to miss a beat. If we are allowed, I want to make sure we have the money for both of them and be ready to go. With our fsp and thiers, we will only need $17,000 to finalize both girls adoptions. I can't wait to share the news with everyone. We could wait a little while longer to make the decision, but with the news of Jacob Stolz's death, time is of the essence. Please pray that this works...and please pray that we have our own adoption miracle.
