Adoption Class #1

On Tuesday, we started taking our foster/adoption classes. The class lasts for 9 weeks, meeting on Tuesday nights, but since we've started late, we have 6 weeks plus a make up session. The class lasts from 6-9 and our first week dealt with the loss that foster children go through.

I had no idea what to expect when we went into the class, but I was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't half bad and it was nice to meet other people that are on the same journey. I'm actually looking forward to the next five weeks.

So thankful for Gramma and Papa who have taken over Nate care on the nights of our classes and for the people that have told us that they would help out when we need it.

Some people have asked if we have a child in mind as we take these classes and the answer is no. At this point, we are taking the classes to have the opportunity to adopt a child when the time is right.

We have about half of the papers filled out, we get fingerprinted tomorrow, and we have our physicals on Monday. This journey is off to a fast start.
