Forgety Family: Our First Number
>> Tuesday, January 15, 2013 –
adoption,
Forgety Family,
The Forgetys,
waiting
WE FINALLY GOT OUR NUMBER!
(Back
in September, but life has been crazy with the two extras at our house,
so
thanks for the grace and prayer)
This is a
big step forward for our adoption process and we couldn’t be more happy to
finally be at this point. But what does
it mean?
In Honduras,
the process for getting a referral is a little bit different than other countries. Everyone that is adopting from the country gets
put on ONE BIG list. We are #81 on that
list to get a referral for a child. As
families lower on the list are assigned a referral than our number will
drop. It could drop one, two, or five numbers
or not drop at all.
So now we
wait. Wait for that number to get lower
and lower.
Thankfully,
we have TWO little rugrats at the house keeping us busy by teaching us how to kiss
boo-boos, play dress-up and horsey, fix kid friendly meals, and how to be a
parent.
