Isn't she smart?! :) What a good girl!
Stacy, I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner on your adoption question. That's wonderful that your husband is open to adoption. I have to say, I had to smile a teeny bit when I read the prerequisites, though--- a closed adoption AND an inexpensive one. Hmm. I think the only way to ensure a closed adoption is to do a private adoption (in the states, thus, lawyer fees, thus... expensive!) OR to adopt internationally (which is also expensive). If I were you I would figure out what you want (international or domestic (w/in the states)) first, and then do research from there.
Also, I want to emphasize that if God wants this to happen, NO AMOUNT of money is too small for Him to provide for you to do this! Mark and I did not even have the first $195 to begin our adoption (we had a garage sale to raise that money), and God provided every cent from there on out. He is so faithful.
Continue to pray that God will open doors and lead you where He wants you to go. He will.
