We filled out the preliminary application for Bethany Christian Services and it was approved. It really just involved our contact information, what type of child we were willing to adopt, what church we attend, our occupations, etc.. When I sent the application via the internet the response said we would be contacted within two weeks and they would let us know if we had been approved. I told Michael and he said...approved! Yes, we can't have biological children so now we need someone to tell us whether we are fit to be parents.
The next part of the process is to attend a informational meeting on Friday, September 9th. I've put together an adoption binder. It consists of information I find that is helpful and a long list of questions we need answered. I continue to read up on home studies and am doing research on a couple books that might be worth purchasing.
So we had our first approval...hopefully one of many on this journey.
