It's only been six weeks since we officially started our adoption journey. Six short weeks. Yet, I sit here and am in awe of what we have accomplished during this short period of time.
1. We met with a lawyer to discuss our legal options.
2. Developed a blog and Facebook Page.
3. Decided that adoption was the path we would choose.
4. Joined Families for Private Adoption (FPA is an advocacy group for private adoption)
5. Made contacts within FPA and got some great feedback from current members.
6. Researched adoption topics via the Internet, books/articles, & talking to other adoptive parents
7. Visited several Adoption Agencies and attended orientations sessions
8. Applied with an Adoption Agency to perform our home study
9. Scheduled our first home study visit
10. Made reservations to attend an Adoption Workshop presented by FPA
What will the next six weeks bring? I'm excited to find out, and can't wait to see the progress we will make.
