No instant gratification here!

We reached the $1000 mark yesterday!!  Only $9000 to go to meet our goal.

I spoke with a Mother who had adopted her two girls through Lutheran Social Services yesterday.  She said that their total for each adoption was a bit over $17,000.  They took out a home equity for the first and a 401k advance for the second.

I also spoke with the adoption supervisor at LSS yesterday.  There IS a way we can adopt for virtually nothing.  It's called a Special Needs adoption.  Mostly for children who aren't adopted through social services and their foster parents.  Mostly over the age of 7.  Mark and I are discussing.  The problem is, we KNOW how the system can really affect a child, and by the age of 7, it's sometimes not reversible.

My friend is having a Scentsy Party for us and donating 50% of her commission to our GOFUNDME.  If anyone is interested, here's the link to that.  Every little bit helps!
