We've all been there...at the place where we have no clue which way to turn. We are at the point where we are standing at the top of the staircase and it's time to take the 1st step, but we can't see the stairs. What are we to do other than close our eyes and make that step of faith?
I just made an appointment for our 1st meeting to discuss adoption. Adoption is something Eric has always been open to, but me...Well, I'll just be honest, I want a child of my own! Sounds a bit selfish doesn't it? Yeah, I know, it sounds more than a bit selfish...it sounds really selfish! I'm the type of person that I want to spend whatever amount of money it takes to carry a child of my own. But I know my Husband is being rational when he says to me, "But adoption is so much more likely to happen than in-vitro working. Wouldn't you rather pay $15,000 towards adopting a child and knowing you are going to walk away with a child?" I know in my mind he is right, but my heart...my heart wants more. I want to feel my Baby's 1st moves, my Baby's 1st kicks, to see my Baby moving around as they perform the Ultrasounds. Okay, so now all of Blog world knows just how selfish Luci Jameson really is!
Anyways, back to the Adoption seminar. I just signed us up for our 1st ever seminar where we will openly go and talk about adopting a child. Part of me is scared, part of me is happy, part of me is sad. But I know in my heart, this is the avenue in which we must travel if we ever want to share our life with a precious child.
Pray for us...pray God sends us our Baby! :)
