Overdue Update with Big News
Well, we're still bogged down on the homestudy process, but it should be finalized next week. Summertime delays and of course, the normal bureaucratic process that never works quickly.
But the bigger news is that I'll most likely have to change the name of the blog. Two weeks ago while going over some minor changes with our agency, they asked if we'd consider adopting a boy. Seems they have more people requesting girls and the pipeline in Taiwan is about 50/50. (Hmmm, pipeline seems such a cold word...but it'll do for now.)
Heather and I had always thought of adopting a sister for Anna, especially when we were focused on China where the ratio is more like 99/1. So we talked and prayed about it, and have decided to leave the decision to God. Our homestudy will say that we're open to either a boy or a girl, and the odds are we'll get a boy! Talk about turning things upside down!
Surprisingly, the name discussion didn't take more than a few days. We've decided on Ian James (sticking with the "I" theme for some reason).
Once the home study is finalized, we hope to have a referral very soon--possibly in a week or two! Then it will be official and I'll change the blog title for good!
We'll be posting more soon!
