Adoption

We are ACCEPTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I finally called my adoption agency this morning as I finally lost it and couldn't take the not knowing anymore.

Of course I had to leave a voicemail.

I got a call around 1PM from one of the head social workers telling me they had officially accepted our application! All the paperwork was sent out to us this morning and we get to start our home study very very soon!

I just about peed my pants I was so freaking excited!

And I had to tell my boss today because I blurted it out right in front of her in our break room when I got the call. WHOOPS! Thankfully she was very supportive and I found out her twin sister adopted her children, so she has an idea of what we're going to go through!

Hubby and I are so pumped!

  • Good thing you didn't pee your pants in front of your boss - that seems like it might have gone over worse. Wink
