Adoption...

Well, it looks like we may be adopting. We discussed it recently and feel that instead of spending thousands and thousands of dollars trying to get pregnant when it might not ever be successful we should use that money to adopt a child that is already alive and that needs someone to love and take care of them. I have done some research and talked to a friend that has been through it and she gave me a lot of good advice. I know that adopting will not stop the urge I have to be pregnant but it will give me the child or children I want to have. I have grown ok with not being pregnant. I do wish that I could experience what its like to find out I am pregnant and have that life growing inside of me but if it wasn't meant to be then it wasn't meant to be. I will raise an adopted child and love them just as much if not more than if I had a biological child. I know there are a lot of children out there in bad situations and I just hope I can make one or maybe two of their lives better.

So now, I am waiting. I have filled out the application online and it said they would contact me. Well that was over 3 weeks ago and I haven't heard from them. I called them today and got a voicemail so I left a message. I don't know how long it will take to hear from them but I know the whole process is lengthy anyway so I am really anxious to get the ball rolling.

Well I guess that's all I have for now.

Good night!
