The Winds of Change?

Good Morning to our readers!!!

We are nearly finished our home study, which has been a long time coming. We have 3 meeting left and then the real waiting game begins! We are so excited that things are moving along!

Its really hard to believe that words and phrases like "When the baby arrives" or "Our child" etc. are starting to creep into our vocabulary. :)

Now having said all that, we are considering adoption from the USA. Things seem to run quicker and of course the financial aspect id a BIG factor.

Well, we will keep you posted as our home study comes to a close and what we decide on the US or Columbia.

Blessings!

Changes...

Just an update..we changed our blog name to The Canada Columbia Connection, if you havent guessed that already.

And we just finished our first of two trainning sessions for international adoption. It was really informative and it was nice to see other couples in the same boat as us. We heard from a couple that adopted from Kazectstan (sorry about the spelling), and all the trials and tribulations they wnet through.

We are now at Melissa's sister's place here in Fredericton...and we are excited to get tomorrow underway!

Ciao!

Fredericton Bound!

Well it has been a real long while since our last post! After our dissapointing news re: Haiti, Melissa and I had a lot of thinking and praying to do..were we going to wait to qualify for Haiti, choose another country, or drop the whole adoption idea....???

In the end we were led to pursue adoption from the beautiful country of Columbia!

This weekend is our trainning course for Internationl Adoption and we are really excited to get to this stage of the process!

We will update ya'll as the weekend progresses!

Bye for now!
