As I've said before, one of the best ways for us to adopt is through designated adoption. Sounds all fancy and different doesn't it? What it really means is someone we know may know someone who is facing an unplanned pregnancy and is considering adoption. The person we know would share our profile with the person they know and then we'd see where it goes from there. I think the reason more adoptions happen this way is because an extra level of trust is automatically built in by this very personal referral. We would appreciate it more than we can say for all of our friends and family to keep us in mind if they are aware of any potential adoption situations. Like, Pin, Share... It's all about getting us out there!
When you are trying to adopt there is usually a very large amount of waiting time. We have had an active profile on itsaboutlove.org for a year and a half now. Sometimes it gets frustrating because you feel like your profile is just out there with the thousands of other couples who are hoping and praying for the very same thing we are! But, we feel like it will happen when and how it is suppose to, as long as we do everything we possibly can! We appreciate all your thoughts and prayers on our behalf!
