Status Update

Hello friends and family! it has been awhile since our last update, so we thought we would let you all know where we are and our next steps.

Since we last posted, we completed our MAPP home study, it was a snap. We also have crossed the half-way point on MAPP certification having completed 6 classes with only 4 to go. The last class was focused on the adoption process (rather than foster) so it was more interesting to us.

We also spent several hours on the adoption profile and "dear birth mother" letter this weekend. Once we are done with these, we will post them here. We also will ask for your help in spreading the word and sending prospective birth mothers our way.

Here are our next steps:

  • Review and approve the A&B home study document (any day now)
  • Complete the adoption profile & dear birth mother letter (this week)
  • Finish the MAPP classes (June 10th)
  • Complete trans-racial parenting training (TBD)
  • Complete the foster care certification process (TBD)
We will post again on this Sunday, if there is any news and try to post every Sunday.

Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

John & Jennifer
