Hello all...well it has been almost a week since we started this blog on our adoption process. We have sent out numerous letters, emails etc. to various organizations, individuals and state authorities looking for children to join our family and still no luck. Sadly we have been contacted several times by private adoption agencies who want an extraordinary amount of money to place us with a child...money which we do not have and feel that doesn't actually benefit the children or the birth mothers of those agencies. Yes, there are some that are in it for the right reasons but sadly most of them have figured out how to line their pockets and take advantage of people like us. We WILL find the sweet spirits that belong in our family, just have to keep the faith. While we wait we prepare...the nursery is complete minus a few details like putting the rocker together and finishing the wall details. Dedicating a special room in our home and filling it with special things has kept our spirits up most days. Maybe this weekend I will get the few things done and take some pictures...well that is all for now, signing off for the night with prayers and hope.
