Adoption


To make a long story short, Clint and I are trying to adopt. When we decided to adopt, we didn't realize the innumerable decisions that came with adoption. How old? Boy or Girl? LDS Family Services or Social Services? to name a few. We've just started a couple months ago and I've already experienced the emotional roller coaster. We're trying our bests to trust the Lord and follow our hearts. We welcome any advice, thoughts or insight.

Same as Charlotte I don't have any advice on adoption, but when it does happen, you'll be the best parents ever! You're already amazing with kids. You'll be in my prayers. Good luck with everything!

Heidi,
I was looking at Erica B. blog and found yours on the way. I do have some advice, email me and I will forward and email to you that I received from a co-worker who adopted both of their children. They just moved otherwise I would give you there info; they would have been a great resource. My email is stewartandbeckynorth@yahoo.com. What an amazing journey you are starting. I wish you all the luck and faith along the way!
