What a busy few weeks. Things have been crazy around here. Between work, striping wallpaper and all the adoption stuff I think I need a vacation. Thank goodness it is right around the corner. We are planning a trip to Florida mid May. I can't wait to relax and just forget about everything for a while. It should be a fun trip.
Cory and I finally had the opportunity to meet with the Miriam Project Adoption Agency last night. They were great! We both really liked them. Only one problem though, they are just a small agency and do not seem to be very well known which makes it difficult for young pregnant women to find them. They currently do not have any birth mothers. That could change rather quickly but it is a concern for those who want something to happen in the near future. Regardless if we choose to go with them or not, it was encouraging to meet them. They were very kind and reassured us that if we decide to use someone else to not feel guilty about it. They said that all that means is that our child is waiting somewhere else for us and that the spirit will bring us together. They seemed very sincere and it was amazing to hear the story behind the creation of this agency. I don't have time to tell the story but it all started with the pastor at Madison Park Church of God and his own adoption experience. I have heard so many touching stories since starting this journey. Adopting a child will truly be a blessing.
