So...as a majority of our friends and family know, we have been waiting for the adoption agency we have chosen to again open their Thai program. It has been closed (meaning that the number of referrals have been lower than normal and the wait list is too long) since last Fall. We were told that it would open in March...no go...we were told it would open in June...no go...then, I called our agency's local social worker a couple of weeks ago and she said that she would check on the timeline. She talked to the program director and when she called me back, she said that the director said that (insert smiles) though the program was not open "officially", the agency would let us move forward and fill out the application! Husband and I filled out the application likity-split and now we are on our way to becoming parents of a child born in Thailand!
We started this blog (against my non-techie nature) to keep our family and friends up to speed on our process. We still would love to chat with ya'll about it face-to-face but wanted a place where you could go to get fresh updates....in case you're curious. We have learned a TON from reading other adoption blogs. I don't know how many hours I've stared at the computer screen, eyes watering, reading about strangers' heartwarming stories. It's been a wonderful way to gain access to the personal side of adoption.
