Tomorrow we will start preparing the house for our home visit from a social worker, which takes place on Wednesday. I can't even begin to explain how nervous I am. Up until this point we have been the ones deciding whether or not we are able to give this little girl a forever family, and now that task lies within a complete strangers hands. This is also the last major thing we need before our lawyer can file with the courts and we will get a court date. The other night I was laying in bed and I said to Tyson, we are really doing this, we are really adopting Sarah. This experience we have had over the past 6 weeks has been one of the most spiritual, and emotionally challenging ones in our life. But it has also been the most amazing and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Anyway wish us luck!

Meet Sarah

Sarah is 4 years old,  about 3 feet tall. Love's animals, spaghetti, climbing, jumping and many other typical things four year olds love. 

I have often heard that when you give birth to a child, they grow in your tummy, but when you adopt a child, they grow in your heart. Sarah is growing in our hearts, every day she is with us. And we have started the process to adopt this amazing girl and give her a forever family. 

Things have been an emotional roller coaster since she arrived into our home, but calm gets so boring right? We are all adjusting and she loves having siblings. The funny thing about this is, she has told her grandma since she got her that she wanted a mommy, a daddy, a big sister and brother and a baby sister. She custom ordered our family, and we have been blessed since we got her.
