Adoption Workshop #3

We had our 3rd Adoption Workshop yesterday.
The first 3 hours was on "Siblings"...  and the importance of keeping siblings together.
It brought awareness to those of us who may be able to bring in more than 1 child, but who are greedy w/ our time/resources to only take 1 child in.  It was incredibly informative.  I think I'll take in an additional 5 children!  :D
The second 3 hours was on Discipline vs. Punishment.  It made for some good giggles to say the least... some people sure are interesting!


We have 1 {7 hour session} left and 1 {3 hour session} to end the workshops.

We still haven't received our Home Study dates.  We cannot move onto the next step without our 3 completed Home Studies.  It's becoming a little frustrating.
In addition, I put in a phone call to DHS to change our Adoption Social Worker because she never returns my phone calls or emails.  NEVER.  I have no clue what's going on...
Also, this past Tuesday we redid our Fingerprints.  It'll be about 6 weeks before we find out if they're "acceptable".

If you're wonderin' how you can pray for us...

  • for a good conversation from DHS to give us factual, precise information with what's going on & what dates we're looking at for the next Adoption Party.
  • for some decisions we're making regarding our home & the addition of a 4th child
  • for our finances 
How can we pray for you?


A big Thank YOU to the Morrows for babysitting our 3 babies for us yesterday while we attended the workshop!  You guys are such a blessing!
