The Next Step

Kate and I are number 21 on the waiting list to get into the profile.  Meaning that once we are in the profile or {BOOK}, we can at anytime get the possible phone call and may be blessed with a placement!!  There are a total of 60 couples or singles in the book that are available to adopt.  Birth parents or mothers that are affiliated with LSS, look through the book and choose the prospective new parents for their child.  Each person in the book submits an autobiography of them or their families, that consists of up to four pages of whatever each person wants to tell about themselves, including lots of pictures so expectant mothers can see who these possible parents are and what there lifestyles and personalities are.  If and when you get chosen, you then arrange a meeting with both parties to get to know each other and informaly interview each other.  Probably one of the most stressful yet exciting time for both parties.  If meeting goes well, a possible contract can then be written up, or arrange for another meeting.  It's alot to process, but in the end a wonderful outcome.  Hopefully you were able to understand a little bit of the adoption process, that I explained.  Thanks for reading.  Jerrod!!
