The WHERE to our Story

   So now we know we will adopt, we know the child will have some special needs, but we still don't know what country. We continued to pray and talk to the girl from our adoption agency that worked with Central America. We were discussing with her on speaker phone a certain country in Central America and David still could not get a peace about this specific country. We had shared our desire to adopt a child that had special needs. God had confirmed that in our season of life with 2 other young children, that we should pursue an adoption of a child with a correctable special need. Our contact at our agency was so patient and listened to all of our questions and concerns. Then, David asked her to compare the Central American country to China. I chimed in and reminded David that she was here to answer questions about the Central American country. She laughed and replied that she actually could help because she was transferring to the China program in a few days and was very familiar with the program. (What a God thing!) She was able to help us see the characteristics of each of the programs and we were excited to see how China was a great match for our family. So on September 5, 2011, we turned in our application to America World to adopt a little girl through the Special Needs program. We can't wait to have Grace Elizabeth home!
