Where shall I begin...
I decided to start blogging, hoping this would pass the time while we wait...and wait...and wait...and wait...My husband and I are trying to grow our family through adoption. We have so many emotions we are experiencing and have enjoyed reading other blogs from families who are going through the same thing. The wait. The call. The acceptance. The delivery. The "new" family.
Many moons ago I became aware of a condition I have, a type of Mullerian Disorder, which allows me to produce everything necessary for a baby, with the exception of a correctly working uterus. So basically I can create, but cannot house. We have explored our options and found that we have 2, surrogacy or adoption. At the stage in the game we are at now we want both (cake and eat it too). So...we began our journey...
Four weeks ago my husband and I buckled down and in 2 weeks had everything complete per our adoption agency request, homestudy and all! We worked hard and spent hours filling out papers, sorting through papers, medical exams, background checks, profile book, etc. And as of 2 weeks ago today we were "officially" approved to be on the waiting list!!!!! Today, our agency received our profile book in the mail and our website went live!!!!!! Needless to say it's been a happy day in the Bowen household :)
