It's official! As of about 2 weeks ago, we officially licensed to adopt again.
And just like that we started being presented with questions of whether or not we wanted our profile presented to expectant moms who are looking for a family for their babies. We've already had to make hard choices, cry over situations, debate what is the right thing to do, work through not being on the same page, having to say no, getting to say yes, and attempting to be patient while we wait for news. All in a couple weeks.
The reality of adoption is that there is joy and blessing in it beyond what we ever imagined when we started walking this route to building our family. But that is borne out of immense loss, grief, and hard places. And you get to walk both when you chose adoption. You get to live in the constant limbo of joy and loss, grief and blessing.
Thank you for walking with us through this.
