Today J took the long journey for his individual interview. He is so busy and I know he did not really have the time to take off work for this. He has been so supportive in this home study process.
J has certainly had his worries in the past about how we would afford this adoption and I sort of expected him to hem-and-haw a little with all these expenses and steps this home study has required but he has been great. He has had to spend hours gathering financial information, spending nice Saturday's getting fingerprinted, writing his autobiography, writing checks :) and he has done these without complaining at all (for the most part).
He even came home today and was talking about some reading we will need to do to prepare for this new little person. He is totally in this now and I don't just feel like he is doing this for me. I know this adoption has meant giving up a lot of potential "fun items" he had hoped to purchase. I know this adoption is such a time commitment along with the commitment to parent again and the time that takes.
Thank you J for the sacrifices you make for God, for me, and for our children - present and future.
I love you!
