I am so happy to report that I have an update on our adoption. The state "likes us" our agency is "behind us and supports us" but somewhere that has been lost in translation. Basically we don't have anything else left to do except wait. APAC our agency is having to add some supporting information spelling out their opinion of us as an adoptive family.
I am so relieved. I know intellectually that it is all in God's hands and His timing. I was beginning to doubt myself though. I was starting to think that the state had found some "problem" with us. I was scared they would say, "No. We aren't giving you children. You would be a horrible mom." I know it is illogical, but after 8 months in review I was really wondering...
Tonight I am thankful that the state is thorough and I am earnestly praying for all the children in foster care this holiday season. I'm thankful for the foster parents taking care of my child/children until I can meet them. I'm thankful that I am God's child. He loves me and I am his heir. Oh the promises that I will inherit as a child of God!
Hey! We live in LA and adopted using APAC through foster care. We dealt with some frustrations with the state also.
ReplyDeleteI love the APAC staff. They are great to work with. I will be thrilled when we have our approval.
