What we've been doing

It seems like the adoption process has a lot of waiting.  .  .  .and then all of the sudden you do a bunch of things all at once! The last week or so we have hit the "do a bunch of things all at once" phase. We had our first face to face meeting with our home study director in Omaha on a Tuesday morning. It went really well! We left immediately after the meeting to drive to Kansas where we visited Nate's family and spent A LOT of time on the phone on hold trying to get insurance and other questions answered for the home study. On Sunday we had the privileged of sharing about adoption with Nate's parents home church in Liberal, KS. I began by sharing our adoption story then Nate preached an awesome sermon about adoption and last, Moses and I sang Children of God by Third Day together. (see video) After the service we all shared a meal together and we were so blessed by the support shown to us!!! We left straight from church to travel back to NE on Sunday and Monday. Monday we were only home for one hour before we got back in the car to head to Omaha for our 2nd meeting. We will have 3 more meetings including the in-home evaluation. We really love our home study director and thank God for providing an affordable Christian agency for us to work with. Our home study will be completed in about 2 weeks and then we will be back to waiting.  .   .  .again.
