Mark and I were talking about adoption last night, per usual, and discussing how both of us feel so very far away from being able to adopt. We try not to feel discouraged, but I must confess, it is difficult at times not to feel discouraged.
We discussed other ways to get our names out there, and the topic of Mark's current internship for school came up. He is currently working in the Pediatrics at Bergan Mercy, and daily gets to see the babies that are struggling for life in the NICU. He mentioned how he wishes that he could just bring one home with him.
Late last night I was able to reconnect with a friend from 10 years ago, Megan, who has adopted twice and currently is anxiously awaiting the arrival of her third. Not only has she offered to spotlight us, but her blogs have several resources and ideas that I think will be very helpful for us in our journey to adopt. I am truly amazed at how the Lord helps us so often through other people! I am anxious to post again, hopefully with more good news on the adoption front.
