Some updates

Hello Everyone,

Thank you so much for your support as we've been starting this journey. We are still going forward and trying to figure everything out. The paperwork feels overwhelming at times, and honestly so does the money.

At this point Anna will actually be taken "off hold" for us while we continue to try and get everything together. While this feels like a setback, especially considering how much we already care about this little girl, I am hopeful that what God has planned will come true. I am trying to look at this as positively as possible. If there is another family that already has their home study done, and has the funds necessary to complete the adoption quicker than we could, then Anna will get the medical care that she needs all that much sooner. While it's heartbreaking to think that some other family would get "our Anna," I am trying to keep in mind that God is in control of everything. If she is meant to be in our family, then she will still be available once we are able to do everything we need.

We will still be moving forward with our home study as soon as possible, and we will keep everyone updated as much as we can.
