Definition of Paper Pregnancy: We have turned our profile in to the adoption agency. They will now "show" us to birth families. Our period of wait until we are chosen is kind of like a gestation period, thus Paper Pregnancy! :)
We turned in our profile and paid the program fee last Friday. We are so happy to be a waiting family! We cannot wait to bring our baby home! I am saying the wait could be anywhere from one month to eight months. Everyone is telling us they think we will be chosen quickly, but we don't want to get our hopes up too high. The agency told us that typically when a birth family chooses an adoptive family, the birth mother is about 8 months pregnant on average. So it is pretty likely that once we are chosen baby will be coming home soon! Exciting times!
I am going to be working on applying for grants and and low or no interest adoption loans. We only have $10,000 to go! God is faithful!
I will update when there is new news! :)
That is awesome news!! God IS faithful!!! I am looking forward to seeing what amazing things he does to get you to your goal!!
