my life as of now....
|
Several of you have asked how the adoption process is going. Put simply...it isn't. Dad refused to sign his rights away. But we're OK with that. We were able to be "Jesus with skin on" to this new mom. And if nothing else, it confirmed in both my husband's and my heart that we really do want another baby. An inevitable questions comes up when you have children who are 7 and almost 12, "You don't want to start over, do you?" The thoughts of lack of sleep and trying to keep up with a baby, child and tween start to meander around in your mind. But taking care of this precious baby confirmed in my mind that, yes, we do want to have another blessing of the Lord in our midst. So we wait. Sounds crazy, doesn't it? Why don't we register with a adoption agency, start looking for moms, etc. Well, because we both believe we're supposed to wait for now. Wait for what, we're not sure, but wait we do. In the meantime, while we wait, we have golf camps, golf tournaments, weekends in the RV, speech therapy, possibly karate. And I hope to start school at the beginning of August. But that's a different story. I also have 2 potential doula clients, one due in October, the other the day after Christmas. Both have contacted me in the last week. After over a year of not getting any referrals. I was a doula for a friend and a doula for the mom whose baby we were possibly adopting but no one had contacted me besides that in over a year. I also am looking into possibly teaching a Maidens by Design course by Blessing God's Way, www.blessinggodsway.com, but we'll see, my plate can only hold so much... |
