Update: Hurry up and Wait

Hey guys haven't posted in a while, Sorry... But there really hasn't been any progress. The weather and our work schedule have caused some delays in the classes, which sucks, but we are still trucking along... So I have contacted them to try and set up the classes a couple times to try and get the ball rolling... Oh and just kind of doing a little research and from a little hear-say ( I know I shouldn't go on hear-say but it's hard not to do when you're going into something you haven't done or have no clue about) this agancy seems to get older children. I know that statement might be harsh for some and I'll explain why I say this. Zach and I are looking to foster to adopt a younger child. Our reasoning behind this is that we are a young couple and had we had children, even at a young age, our child would still only be young. Plus we would like for our child to be around the same age as our friends children so they can play and enjoy being a child. Having a Psychology degree really makes you think about developmental milestones. So with all of this we have decided that our age range would be 0-3 but would be open to 0-6. We understand that there are many older children in the system and trust me I would love to help them all if I could and maybe in the future we could but for now our best option is to go with the age we we have chosen. This process is extremely difficult mentally. It's a hurry up and wait type of situation which is aggravating but we are staying positive and trying not to expect too much to fast. So with all of this being said we would like to thank you all for keeping up with our jouney!!!!! It means so much to us.... I will be posting more either when things happen or if I think of something that I want to share !!! Also if you have any questions or suggestions we would be more than happy to answer them or talk about your suggestion....😄


I also would like to thank everyone for the outpouring of support. We have received so many good comments and uplifting remarks that it makes the wait less unbearable. I have to be honest, I said I would be an open book when I started this blog, we have received some negative reactions from all of this. Some people have Their opinions regarding Their beliefs about what is right or wrong. I was well aware that this would happen so for the sake of the blog I am mentioning it, otherwise I wouldn't give Their comments the time of day. Everyone has beliefs and the abilty to express said beliefs. Just as i do, yet I choose to let people do what they want because I have zero right to say what anyone does with Their life and the same goes for my life.
