So yesterday was my birthday and I did secretly hope that the universe would align and we would get the call that we have been waiting for....that call didn't come, but I was reminded how amazing my husband is. Since we first made the decision to adopt one thing has been causing us to hesitate and has caused us distress....MONEY. As I have discussed in this blog adoption is not cheap. With the help of our family and friends we raised the first installment of $4,300 towards to adoption. For my birthday my amazing husband gave me a card, and it said that we no longer have to worry about the cost of the adoption because it is all in the bank. Jeremy has worked every weekend this summer, over time, extra accounts, side jobs and much more, he has been saving, saving, saving without me really knowing. Well he did it! He always promised that he would make it happen and I know that we both had concerns that it wasn't possible,but it WAS. With the hard work of Jeremy, his love for me, and his desire to be a dad he MADE it happen. We can now take the call from the social worker and not have $8,600 looming over our head and our excitement.
Thank you to everyone for your support and donations during this time. Now all we need is kind words, warm thoughts and prayers. I know that the call will come and our child will be in our arms at some point, for now we are just trying to enjoy our time together and wait for everything to fall into place. Thank you again and continue you checking in because soon we will have the post that we have all been waiting for.
