Approved!

I received some very exciting new this afternoon...my home study was approved!  Someone asked me if I doubted getting approved for the home study...I didn't doubt that I would "pass" but the official approval came 3 weeks before I thought it would.  

Sooo, what's the next step?  I will be putting a piece of paper with my signature on it in the mail tomorrow.  After the agency receives this piece of paper, I'll be "active" with the agency.  And then I continue waiting.  God is teaching me a lot about patience during this process.  I've never been great at waiting.  Never.  But, this process is all about waiting and God is continuing to teach me to lean on Him in new ways. 

Thank you for all of the excitement and prayers!  I have been SO encouraged!

  1. Hi Jen, I'm Carrie, we met in Target last week in the formula isle:) I have been meaning to 'follow' your blog since then, but as you will soon find out, being a mom takes up a LOT of your time and I'm just not skilled at one handed computing! It was a real blessing to meet you. My pediatrician call this week to ask if I needed formula that they're giving away, and of course I thought of you. If I can get more would you take it? I look forward to reading your awesome adoption updates!
