Yo...Congratulations on getting the paperwork done. You are so very thoughtful about the whole process and really are a model for what every adopter should be like.<br />But I was actually motivated to comment this time because of your sentence about the word "blessing." I actually love the word blessing - but feel as an agnostic that it is now off-limits to me. Has the word always been completely religious???? Blessing, blessing, blessing. Wow, that feels good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-603400846504081911.post-50807151934308369322011-03-02T13:42:43.097-05:002011-03-02T13:42:43.097-05:00I don't have a blog (somedays I think I'm ...I don't have a blog (somedays I think I'm the only one!).

Our homestudy case manager also told us to the homestudy first...oh well. <br /><br />I'm sure whatever decision you make will be well-informed and just right for you. Like Kristin said, you have given this a ton of thought and it's clear you've done the research. I can't wait to hear what you decide!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05622597895525196654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-603400846504081911.post-51484988729831561262011-02-26T22:37:41.553-05:002011-02-26T22:37:41.553-05:00Congrats on getting this far!!!Congrats on getting this far!!!veggiemomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04382130007331410251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-603400846504081911.post-69318008950574706492011-02-26T20:50:19.359-05:002011-02-26T20:50:19.359-05:00I completely agree and wish that I had done more t...I completely agree and wish that I had done more than one thing at once.
