It's been a couple of weeks now, but we have sent in our application, chosen a home study agency, and have filled out the second round of paperwork and have it ready to mail. Things have been going smoothly, which should have been a sign that more was to come...
I just opened an e-mail to learn that the agency we had chosen to complete an update on our home study will unfortunately not be able to help us at this time. Therefore, we are back to square one on the next step in this process. After MANY phone calls to agencies across the state of NC, this was the only one that was willing to use our previous home study and treat this one as an update, cutting the cost by more than half! We were well on our way to having enough money to schedule that, so now we're just a little unsure of where to go from here.
We know that this too is in God's plan. We are trusting Him to show us the way!
