New Agency?

Hello there!

There has been little to post because very little has been going on but there's some new things going on here!

Landon and I decided to check out a new agency for adoption! We still love the ministry of Loving Alternative but they only place somewhere between 3 to 10 children in a year. So, we decided to look at an agency who does a little more than that.

We were referred to Gladney Adoption Agency out of Fort Worth.

http://www.gladneyadoption.com/

They have been doing adoptions for over 100 years in Texas (isn't that crazy?!) And they place over 300 children in a year which is better odds for us. They do both domestic and international adoption as well.

We filled out initial information via their website for domestic adoption and they emailed us back in 4 days and we were approved! Now the next step is an orientation on February 17th. After the orientation if we want to move forward we turn in our official application for $150 and then we start the homestudy and we start paying fees...lots of fees!

So, please pray for the orientation in February that we would see the process clearly, that we would see where God is leading and follow and also that whatever path we need to be on and whatever things need to fall in place would fall in place.

As I know more I will post more but it seems as though things will move faster after that orientation if we still go with Gladney so please pray for us and thanks for the love and support!
