What We Have Ahead of Us....

I am at work, at lunch, and of course I can't get our adoption out of my mind. So, other then pounding out paperwork we need to raise some money. So, if I break it down,this is what we need. For an adoption in region 9 it is about 32k for one child. So if you adopted two at seperate times you are looking at 64k. Yikes! We would like to be able to adopt two litte girls with Ds. I am working hard to get the paperwork done and I am picking up extra time at work not only to pay bills, but to prove to Phoebe's government that we can afford to adopt them. With our fsp and Phoebe's grant we have over $16,400. The adoption of two is about $36,800. So, we only need a little over $20k to adopt both girls. A lot better then 64k right??? If the government allows us to adopt the other little girl her grant will help. So, who is up for some fundraising? I wouldn't ask for help for me, but I would ask for help for my kids. It would be a miracle to only have to worry about the paperwork. We will all see what happens in the next few weeks.
