Step 1: Accepted!

We heard back from Angel Adoption and they have accepted us into their agency!  We are very excited to be working with them and feel that they are a great fit for us and one day, our new little one.  We have many things to check off a list and a road ahead of us.

Our next few steps will be doing a home study, talking with a "family" lawyer and working with the agency to create a profile for potential birth moms to start getting to know us. This process of waiting for a birth mom to select us to take anywhere from 6 - 18 months, but the average for the agency is around 111/2 months. 
     
The hardest thing to do now is wait but also find the money to cover all the costs.  As you have read in our previous posts, adoption is expensive.  I don't want to ask, but If through your prayers, you feel called to assist us financially, we would be forever grateful. It truly does take a village to raise a child.  We have a compassionate crowdfunding site set up at youcaring.com under Grass Family Adoption or feel free to contact us directly.

Thank you all for your prayers and support as we begin this next part of our life adding to our family.
