It's in the mail!

Today was the most exciting and nerve shaking day! I knew I wouldn't be able to get to the post office in time, so Mark was able to drop off our application in between work hours. So here it is....our application!!! There is no turning back now!

Want to be Grandparents (again)?

We've been out of touch for a while. Basically, doing a lot of deep soul searching and talking about this commitment we are about to step in.
After looking at our finances and seeing if the time is right, we have agreed it is. It will take A LOT of sacrifices on our part, but we are willing to do whatever we need (can we say a third or fourth job??).
Tonight was the last step before we send in the application. Mark and I went to tell my parents about our decision and get their full blessing and support as we take this emotional roller coaster. Nothing touched me more than hearing my dad say that "Somewhere out there, your child is waiting for you." Did we need to hear anything else?
