So I’ve really been bad about keeping people up to date on our adption process. So here is a brief update.
We are in the last phase of interviews before our home study happens. We just finished our couples interview last week and next we have our individual interviews. The best way to desicribe these are Bethany Adoption asking us about ourselves. I’m guessing they are making sure we are who we say we are. Once we finish the interviews, our home study is scheduled for July 9. This is more of a safety study to make sure our house is appropriate to bring a child into. That means lots of locks, extinguishers, etc. have to be installed.
Once all this is done, they have to write up our case (not sure this is the right terminology but it works) which will take about 5 weeks and then we can be entered into the selection pool.
We still have to do our mini-profile and profile book which birth mothers will use to learn about us and select us as the adoptive parents. Once we are in the selection pool we have no idea how long the process will take.
God continues to amaze us with His provision. I wish I could tell you all the times He has shown us He is in control of this process.
I look forward to the day we bring the child God has for us into our home. I hope to give more updates in the near future.
