And Now We Wait!

We have been approved as an adoptive couple at LDS Family Services. It took us about 4 months to complete all of our paperwork, do interviews, and complete our homestudy.

Wait unknown: average LDS services wait is 1-2 years. Birthparent choose the family they wish to place with, so we will wait to be found.

We are SO EXCITED! Starting on another adoption journey has made me think about Luke's and Gabe's birthmoms and families. We love them so much. They have given us the gift of our family. They are so unselfish, courageous, and full of love. We fill so lucky to have to have them be a part of our lives. Thanks for your support!
Love, Ben and Heather

Of course I remember you! So fun finding people blogging huh! Look at YOU with your two adorable boys! Baby Luke has grown into such a cute little man! I didn't realize so much time had passed since we all moved away. It's awesome to see you guys are doing so great, and good luck with adoption #3! I'll keep looking for updates!
