Received the call yesterday that we can officially begin the process.
As ya’ll know we’ve been on a waiting list for about 6 months. Hadn’t told everyone but about two weeks ago we were told that they only received 7 spots for the year (this means only 7 couples on the waiting list will be allowed to adopt from South Korea this year). We were number 16 on the list, however there were a lot of Korean couples below us on the list who are given preference and moved to the top (obviously they’d rather a Korean baby grow up with Korean parents). We were told the odds were VERY SLIM that we would be given a spot.
Over the last two weeks they went down through the list giving out the spots. AND amazingly they made it to our name on the list and we were given one of the spots!
This means we can officially start the process now (home study, mounds of paperwork, raising a bazillion dollars, etc.).
I can’t tell you how excited we are. We feel SOOO blessed to have such great prayer warriors who PRAYED US INTO A SPOT! THANK YOU!!!!!
