So, here we are. The decision has been made FOR us at this point.
We have to adopt. Yep. Surrogacy is out...through no fault of ours, but its out, so here we go. We have met with a few agencies and heres what we know. We need $18,000.
Yep.
Ridiculous isnt it? Then they wonder why more people dont adopt. Sure you can adopt a sickly or older child from foster care for nothing but for a newborn, one that comes out and comes straight to your arms? Eighteen Grand. *sigh*
So our first order of business is to get the home study done. That itself is $1500. I have a couple friends who are asking their churches for donations, which i find awesome. Amazing. Simply the best. That is above and beyond, because honestly, ever single penny is helpful. So yea, if any of you have any ideas for fundraising or etc let me know..Im lost...all over again...
I have started consulting for thirty-one to make extra money to save for the adoption. If anyone wants a party let me know. Its actually pretty freaking awesome stuff. And priced good. People can order from anywhere, you dont have to go to a party, as I have a WEBSITE! (Imagine that) ;) so if you know anyone who needs pretty things or christmas..kids..etc have a look..<3 If you order from my site, i get credit for it, and THAT helps the baby fund.

off to do homework...happy thoughts...happy thoughts..
